The 73 is basically the same sheet metal, but had those horrible 5mph bumpers. Same thing with these cars, smaller bumpers really improve the overall looks of them. I am looking for a set of used ones now that we can cut up and rechrome. More on this later.
I feel they are the next big thing, but it may take another ten or so years for them to be big. However, anyone with a little spare coin and acreage would do well to buy up a few of these cheap cars and just sit on them. $3500 spent now on a very good one would be better than money in the bank.
I agree I have seen a few low mile buick T types as well do ya think they will also be popular down the road?
