Can those who know old American iron tell me what this started out as and what's been grafted on.  The rear at least has possibilities.

Edit, opps, I forgot a pic.  Here's me and my grandson at Kennedy space center back in Feb before lockdown.

Looks like a 70-74 Dodge Challenger with an Olds Vista cruiser rear roof.

Based on the note, I assume it's eggs.

Expanding foam. I would think that you could salvage it by pulling the exhaust, dissolving the foam with acetone, then flushing it thoroughly with water.

I in no way condone vandalism or even touching another man's car... but we have someone at work with a newer 5.0 Mustang that  must be pretty much straight piped, and if this car sounds similar I can sympathize with the neighbors. It is ridiculously loud. 
 

Teen in the house across the street from me recently bought a 370Z that's insanely loud.  I'm not kidding when I say that from any room in my house we can hear that car crank up and drive away or arrive home.  It's mildly irritating, but there's no way I'd ever think to vandalize the car.

I took another look, and yeah, I think I see yolks. Still crazy.

Her Grand dad was chairman of Lotus, he wanted to carry on Chapman's tradition of naming cars starting with the letter E, and so, the Lotus Elise was named after her - Elisa.

I suspect a trunk from a sedan was grafted on to the 2 door cab of a same year El Camino.

We were discussing the short term American fascination with 4speed overdrives in the 5 speed thread a while back.  I am fixing a 84 Bronco with such a thing just now.

I thought it was a regular 4 speed, and was trying to imagine the diff ratio based on rpm at 60mph...

Nice sticker.  Much info, so knowledge.
