That just hurts my eyes to look at.
Paint it another color and I might look at all the pics.

It looks like that's what they used to paint it.

I didn't even let the ad fully load and I closed it out.   :puke:

Yeah, if I were to buy something like that it would go to the paint shop before I even had it shipped here.  The car is located in Washington state, guess I'll keep looking.

Okay, okay, we buy it for the Misfits staff car.

But first they gotta get the title straight, that "1977" has got to be an '80 or better, doesn't it? '

Yes, that's right. I couldn't see that past that paint. So I looked at the VIN, and it shows the pre '81 VIN. The 6th didgit denotes the model year "7" which is 1977. I did not think any of the sheetmetal was interchangible between the '77-'79 and the '80 and later D cars. Also, the rear bumper is from a '78 or '79.

Maybe this is a "One Piece at a Time" car.   :chin:

 :No:    I was being nice last year sampling Gareth's brew. 
Prior to that, hadn't tasted beer since high school.
Still don't like it.

  With the price of coffee going up, maybe I would park it in the driveway, and the  color would wake me up just by looking at it doesn't Avon reward their top sales person with a pink caddy?

That would be Mary Kay, but their pink color was much lighter ---- not as garish.
