Why put that much work into a car that is older? Why buy anything other than the most basic car? They are all a waste of money (usually)...but some people have passion for certain cars. This was obviously theirs. It might be pointless to some, but I can guarantee you that this thing will turn heads left and right going down the road, which I have a feeling is what they were after.

Ha Ha Ha! Kind of a hypocrite aren't you? Why build a motor and install am APS kit??? I saw your build threads so I don't think you have any room to talk about how much work was done to this car and its age etc...You did the same type thing just not as extensive IMO! But thanks for looking and the compliment.

Yeah I think Tim has got that covered. He has been showing me and a few others various wheels and ideas so I don't think he is going to make a great decision.
