Pity they jacked up the rear and put side pipes on it too!

Ineptocracy (in-ep-toc-ra-cy) - a system of government where the least capable to lead are elected by the least capable of producing, and where the members of society least likely to be able to sustain themselves or succeed, are rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a diminishing number of producers.

Loose the wheels and pipes, put the skitrts back on and it could be a decebt car. And I bet he'd get more money for it too.

But how can it ride like a Cadillac being jacked up like that with those wheels? You might was well be driving aoround on steel rims for all the good those tires are doing.

That's $4000.00 worth of wheels and tires.  Maybe you could just sell them to help finance the car?  O0 O0 O0

And what's up with leaf springs in the rear?  :chin:  :scratchhead:

Ueagh, what I meant is the '71 was a coil-spring rear suspension.

This car must've been changed to leaf springs?  :scratchhead:

Man, I'd like to see the (lack of) workmanship on that deal.

I was trying to remember the rear suspension layout last night. Somehow I pictured leaf springs as origianl like the '67-70.
