do you still need someone to look at it? Those background shots don't look like Detroit proper, so I feel like that car could be 2 miles or 200 miles from me.

The 1st iteration of the 5 mph bumpers required them to hit a flat wall without damage to mechanical or lighting systems. The rubber chunks did the job in this test. There was later standard that used a swinging pendulum which required more creativity. That's why you saw things like the rubber...

It's not factory. The factory trim is a complex shape cast in pot metal. If you don't have that part, this half-*** result is what you get with aftermarket generic trim.

They made Hooker Super Comps years ago, but I don't know when those went out of production?

That car was gorgeous when new. You'd at least need a rot box with a mint interior.

He was local to the Detroit area and went by "OneBadSuperbird" on Moparts. And about a half-dozen other names after he kept getting booted off. I can't believe I remember that!

That's awesome seeing that car on the other side of the world. I would love to know the backstory on who/why someone living in Spain went through all the additional hassle to have that car when it was new. I wonder if it sat next to any Dodge 3700's at the dealer!

As someone who got involved (and eventually elected 4X) to city government BECAUSE I was concerned about them getting too picky about current 1x1" registration stickers, etc. I'd tell you there's zero shame in calling in a legit problem. If you get tagged for a derelict car in my city, its...

...overflow tank. 3) Do not allow them to overheat. I somehow found that analytical discussion so much more interesting than "TheY r aLL piEces uh $#*t!" Which triggered my memories of the Mopar A-604 ultradrive, which did have some very early issues, but was also some very new tech at the...

I started writing a reply to the RareClassicCars 1967 Imperial video, but then I realized the trend is a whole lot bigger than this. These guys aren't stupid... They know that virtually any car has a fanbase and that by using keywords like "worst, failure, flop, dud, etc." in the...

Autozone lends the tool you need for free. I just did one about a year ago.

All that effort spent shaving door handles and adding a milk-jug plastic scoop, but zero interest in lining up the headlight doors. I'm sure all the mechanical priorities were in order, lol.

That's how all of these hillbilly-modded big-block cars end. And not with new drivetrains either. They're a joke to the musclecar crowd and usually missing too many parts for the small number of original C-body fans to bother with.

I'm down with the Panther cars and the GM B-bodies, but feel no need to pretend I was assigned the low-bid government mobile. I did sell both, but if I had infinite indoor storage, I would have never sold either of these. I blame the commie magazine writers for making people feel like they...

I'd find a background scene and claim it was used on an episode of CHiPs!

I've seen 5th wheel campers that clamped the receiver to the roof's rain troughs! Yikes.

Silver spray paint over a light coating of grease and road dust. Maybe they even used Krylon Chrome, given the price point and all?

Not AZ shiney, but far from MI scaley. I'd probably give it a once over with a pressure washer, then an oil treatment. Perhaps hit everything under the door moldings with a DA sander and zinc primer, then paint. Deal with everything above it next season. Looks like it spent time outside, but not...

Definitely an aftermarket top. Now you can see why the factory tops had those complicated rear moldings. If you just try to do a simple line, it looks like this: Barf.
