What the heck were they trying to do??? Mold an early C4 rear end (and tilted at that!) to a classic C3! That is one fugly car from the back. And it's "recently restored". More like 'recently destroyed'!

And how about the front end? What year is the front clip from? Sure doesn't look like a 73 to me.

For that money if frame is solid I'd go check it out. I've seen the front mod often but the tail never. I think it will sell soon

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't '73 the only year with a chromie rear? Then why in heaven's name 'modify' a one year only concept with those hindquarters? And it doesn't at ALL go with the '82 snout.

Sorry. Not good. Looks dumb IMO.

Default nice car, bad rear

nice car but I agree poor rear bumper choice. It will not go up in value, and it will be hard to sell unless it sells over seas.

"Big bottom, big bottom...talk about mud flaps - my girl's got 'em."

I've never seen that rear end either, and I can understand why.
