It has SUPER CHARGER L60-14 rear tires on it.
Those must be at least 35 years old.

Are the seats done in metalflake? That's the first time I ever saw that

That car looks like it just sprung off the pages of Car Craft in the late 70's early 80's. I remember with the rage was fender flares and metalflake! LOL! There are some very period correct items for that era. The plastic chrome side bullet mirror, valve covers, tires, bolt on ladder bars, etc. It is like a time warp. All the mods were consistent with that time period. Man we were partaking way too much in the recreational drug scene!

Wow. Eye catcher. Definitely a period piece. I thought I was looking at a grown-up "Hot Wheels" custom car.
Not a horrible price point. And it can be undone without too much trouble. Or, keep it for a conversation piece. At least it's not "donked".

I can see why "it was kept in a garage for 22 years". didn't want ANYONE to see that!

i like it, a few tasteful period correct changes would make that car 70s era timepiece

I hope this comes through speaking of ugly and yes I bought it. The spinner knob sealed the deal for me . The red velour interior just icing on the cake.

The inside of the doors are like new. I don't believe I've heard that as a selling point. Haven't seen metalflake that large in a long time...must've been tricky to lay down that smoothly.

Maybe I just missed it, but he doesnt list the engine displacement. How do you not list that?

I think he was in the wrong section of the paint catalog, he was in the Bass boat paint section

I must confess.
My first car was a 73 Camaro with an L-88 hood, Mickey Thompson N50 rear tires, side pipes, and glassed in flare extensions and rear wing. The car was painted in bright blue metallic with the heavy metal flake shown on this car and a white and black interior. The "Beast" would change from blue to gray to purple depending on the lighting and could be seen roaming the street of St. Louis in the 80's and early 90's. Wish I had saved the pictures of it as I had to sell it after getting fired.

I never had the opportunity to do any weird period stuff. But my first car back in the mid 80's (78 Formula) had some crazy accent pin striping flourishes around the door handles and going around the back window. It's strange to relive what we thought was a good idea at the time.

Ok I found one of the interior. Note the playboy air freshener, grant wheel,roll bar they even veloured the dash board. Hard to believe they found someone stupid enough to buy it.

Hard to believe I used to think these were the coolest kinds of cars in the late 70's early 80's. Side pipes, wheel flares, diamond tuck and an engine sticking through the hood. Didn't seem to matter that the foot tall air cleaner is what was sticking out.
