Came across this on eBay. Seems to be worth further inquiry. Replace the BUBs with early bumpers and you may have a nice car. I have no knowledge of this car other than what is listed on eBay.

That looks like a damn nice red car. Most folks would be hard pressed to recreate it for the Reserve price. A lot of nice parts and it appears to have been completed with good consideration for most all components from what I can tell. BTW...I think the the 75-76 bumpers look great and separate the car stylistically from most all other conversions that pop up for sale...I guess I am biased...My yellow 6 conversion is below! Gonna be very interesting to see how this sale goes! Good luck to the seller.

For those who wonder, these cars are amazing with a 2.7 power. Pretty much a bargain at BIN price.

Looks nice, but I would be very cautious... 0 feedback is always a red flag.

I was wondering if that was Lyle's... Always wondered if he finished that car, now I know.

Anyhow, I'm close too, if any serious buyers need eyes on it.

$22,000 wow. I guess I have an idea of what the market is paying for 6 conversions.

Maybe mine will be for sale soon.
