Love this car.....some very cool details. Should be interesting to see what it sells for.

I don't really see that much that would be a big problem to correct. Two weeks of work and that would be a proper looking Six. I would pay some decent money for that car if it all checked out in so far as rust, crash damage, engine/transaxle numbers, etc. I would do $50K for a '71. Granted I am biased, but it is a real Six and they only made 433 or so in '71. This is an early '71, I am surprised it has the later '71 rear bumper. I wonder how early in the '71 run they switched to the later bumper? I hope it sells well.

I'm thinking on this one there's a good chance the car started out with the early chrome bumper, and the later painted one was swapped on when they went to colored bumpers.

So they basically took a Six and made it look like the base Four of the time, huh? Not to my own taste, but someone will probably buy it for a price I think it way too high.
