Looked like THIS for 24 years:

I bought it for $5000 in September 2019. It came with fenders, hood, valance, bumper and grille. I cut off the entire front structure and welded on a stub from a 1970 Belvedere, rebuilt the original 383 and it now runs and drives.



It will stay ratty for awhile, partly because I am fortunate enough to have another '70 that is already "finished".
