    Oh,,, I like that and it has AIR? Nice for summer cruising. I can't believe how many people build cars for "summer use only" But they don't put air on

    That is one nice looking ride. What are your plans for it?

    Thanks everyone!

    Not sure of my plans yet. The car either sits to low or has the wrong size front tires on it because it rubs the wheel wells when you make a hard turn. The chrome needs redone and it needs repainted. Just purchased it today and taking delivery next week.

    looks good....quality paint jobs are expensive.

    If you're intentions aren't to keep the car forever, be careful how much money you sink into it now.

    Looks like a nice car !! I have dealt with the guys at oldtown before and are real stand up guys. They have alot of high quality cars at VERY reasonable prices, and one of the coolest showrooms I have seen ! Just drop a size of tire in the front and the car will have a perfect stance.ENJOY!!!!!!!

    Also I forgot to say...the old owner must of been having trouble filling it up with gas. You have to open the truck and the gas cap is inside the trunk. Is that legal?
