When I see these era cars, I think, who would buy this?

This guy and he'd drive it to the liquor store to get a 6-pack of beer in a paper sack.

Dave Marcis was an old school salt of the earth campaigner. I am a fan of his tenacity.

I would buy it, put lights and tags on it and drive it like that.  I needed an excuse to wear my wingtips more.

If i had $32k burning a hole in my pocket I would absolutely buy that thing.  That's a bargain.
