My friend bought this back in September 2020...thanks for not making me buy this one Ben.
This was a signal orange car originally delivered to LA CA, I believe it lived it life in So Cal.  |

You never know... Someday a chalon might be just as interesting to collectors as stock. As the generations turn over that Memorex 80s look might be of interest, particularly for those who grew up in the 80s.
Not saying that should stop you from capitalizing on current fads and definitely stock is the safe bet for future value. And if that carpet in the frunk needs a new home, pm me. |

I started driving in 1981 and the only 80s stuff that is "cool" is stock 80s stuff. Butchering a pre-80s car is like putting 2" baseboards in a California Craftsman house. *shudders* (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon8.gif) |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) It is too bad this was a /6 though, would have been a neat historical conversion car to own. |
