The answers to the questions at the bottom of the listing are truly high entertainment. I especially enjoyed the *patent pending*, cutting edge, secret details, suspension while the stock brakes have recently been worked on by *Midas*.
Cutting edge, oh yeah!

Just for sheets and grins (or whatever) I clicked on it again.....
Man that REALLY IS BAD....
And, apparently it isn't a real ebay-type auction. The buy-it-now is $32k and then instead of 'bidding' you make an 'offer.'
The offers are pretty 'funny' also. There's one for a penny, several others under a dollar (one dollar) and several at $10k and one at $13k. ALL, of course, were 'declined.'
Amazing.....
Bill.

Actually we could use that torch we were talking about and have some real fun customizing this tractor  .

You know, you could make this into a nice car by lifting it off this abomination and setting it down on a C-5. I think the wheelbase is the same. You'd really have something then. Nobody would know it was 'modified' until you lifted the hood, or crawled underneath it, or until he stepped on the gas.

Thanks, 42bill
I thought it was a reference to a Jeep...I guess that's CJ-5. :)

You're pretty broad minded if you can 'respect' THAT.
Pretty lousy 'use' of a nice car. '66 Chevelle convertibles are highly desirable from the prices I see. I can't imagine a nearly stock or just slightly modified version wouldn't actually bring more money.
Mainstream isn't the only stream; but it seems to please most eyes!!!

Some one wasted a lot of money and time to mess up a Chevy like that. Sure cuts deep with us original people. I just can't see what makes some people tick. Takes all kinds but we could do without "those kind". JIM :(
