I'll wait a few weeks and shoot him a lowball offer of $250. Then take it to the next meet and watch everyone's necks just snap off.

That is absolutely preposterous. Did he convert it to a vinyl top or did he spray it? I can't tell.

It looks like all canvas or vinyl and that means quality!

Oh man, I think there is something wrong with me. I think I actually like it. Aside from the wheels. I always make fun of ugly poorly done cars with stupid paint and mods. car like... well this one. But for some really weird reason I like it. I can't put my finger on why... I may be coming down with something...

Looks more like a Highrider than a Lowrider. But yeah, I've got mixed feelings on the look of that top....

The real question I have is... What does the interior look like? If the outside is that, I can only imagine to horrors inside!

Oh man, that car sold for a LOT of money back in the day. I have a bunch of higher resolution pictures of it back when it was first floating around here, just saved for posterity or something, haha.
