How cool is that? Those cars look bad 'A' as a nostaliga car. You are one lucky dude. I like it that high, it just needs some massive fender well headers to fill the void (I am a child of the 60's and that is what we did).Guys would kill back in those days to have their car sit like this.And yes, the front wheels look cool, but are politically in-correct!It needs those multi spoke American ones.
But in the end, it is your car, and things I like, you may not like.That is the fun of it, personalizing it. Have fun and enjoy your new ride......I like it.

Dutch that fire starter sitting on the carb just as fast as you possibly can before you find yourself with a fire dept practice car
 
Thats cool! I wouldnt change a thing except adding some fenderwell headers and adding some injection through the hood!
 
I agree fender well headers would be the perfect add on.
Nice find cool looking car.
 
Another vote for fenderwells. :D
Great looking car......the stacks would be a nice touch , but that gets pricey.
I guess it comes down to just how Dick Landy do you want to go. :prayer::prayer:
 
Cool, I saw that car cruising around here when it was in town. Sweet ride!
