Come on Lotto ,I need this car in my collection to lol
-
Well, is it a " nice" car, but...........
As stated non-original motor.
The stripes are not done well, and are too far apart down the center of the car.
The dash bezel appears to have been resprayed, and not that well
Wheels dont look like the were stripped correctly.
The passengers window doesnt seem to line up right.
Cant tell if its dirt, or the dash rusting on the drivers corner.
Any body else?

Did I not say that in the first line???????????????????????
-
Also noticed a little curb rash on the Left front rim, now it is possible it may have came from the tire machine. Oh yeah and hood insulation blanket.... was never installed on by the factory. Also trying to figure out what is exsposed under the console at the shifter buldge... Wires???? BUT... its still a great LOOKING specimen without a doubt. I would be vey happy to have it im my garage.
-
I gotta say though ,black and gold really does it for me. I can't get over how good those colors go together
The dash is the thing I noticed right away to ,looks way to gold imo
-

yes but i dont think it deserved to be picked apart like that lol
-
Wasn't picked apart... just a few things pointed out. Nice car overall, but more attention needs to be taken for the little details.
-
I see what you mean now with the stripes being far apart in the center. I wonder if the kit they bought dictated that for them ?
It actually kinda bugs me now lol .
I also see what looks like an added stripe in the back bumper .Looks to busy like that imo .
Now you Guys got me picking stuff apart lol .
Also it looks like someone quickly spray bombed the undercarraige to hide rust
-
Actually, the stripes it looks like they just used a roll of stripes to create everything which is even the cheaper way out. SO, they did not even spend the money on the stripe kit..... they used a roll of it for $30.
-
I don't doubt that Brett,something about those stripes just doesn't look right
It does come with a die cast model though lol
-
And I did sleep at a Holiday Inn last night.
-
Wrong center caps on the wheels too, while we're at it :)
-
And actually I think the door emblems are red. Hard to say from the pics though
-
i don't know if you guys noticed, but this car has a 100 MPH speedometer. isn't it supposed to go higher than that on that year? I have a 79, mine goes to 100 MPH
-
No, 100 is correct

I think HitMan would be the expert on that question
^^ sorry Scott,I didn't see your post .
-
The 100MPH speedo is right. The last 160MPH speedos were 1975 and then in 1980 or 1981 they went down to 85mph speedos.
-
they could have spend the whole $50 more for a kit and got the pre-molded stripes really kills the looks of the car

The 75 speedometer was supposed to have been the 100 MPH one, although that's not to say there couldn't have been a few "use up and go tos" on the production line. The dreaded National Speed Limit had come into effect just months before and anything in excess of 55 MPH was considered Politically Incorrect in those days. The 1974 model year was the last to recieve the 160 MPH speedometers per design.

I get a kick out of those 160 mph speedos. Those were the days lol
