I wonder if that front end could be put back to stock. That's the most objectionable part to me.

Its bad, but its not nearly the worst.

Is that a 944 front bumper at the end of all that other garbage?

Maybe looked OK in the 80s....

Does kind of look like aluminum siding under the headlights though.

Looks like a polyester leisure suit I once had.

Perhaps it's a cherry pan without rust and Renegade did the conversion in their shop.
The "custom" front end is there to drive the price down on a car that is a good start point with (glass?)flares.
An iron head sbc lump with bad guides and seats knocks it down some more.
Test for compression and leakdown,maybe it won't turn cause it cooked and spun a bearing,so check the oil.
Determine if the TX is hurt,easy to do with the V8.Bring several batteries to attempt a start.
Cameras,lights,to show off the interior and what the floors look like.
Here in Ont,salt bugs eat Porsches as appetizers to the main course,British cars.
Get a looksee inside the longs and base the price on their condition.
The paint is non stock,get a look under the tank,poke it with your borescope,the bug is there,lurking.

Seriously Fugly (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon8.gif) . I either really dig the interior or I hate it. Haven't figured out which yet (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

With that type of work the buyer can expect to find a few more surprises. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif)

The sad thing is somebody spent a fair amount of cash to make it that ugly. "Nobody ever went broke underestimating the taste of the American public."
