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 really like the paint, and the wheels are good too. I must agree with
Bill on the bumpers. The first thing I think when I see those bumpers is "1970s cop car". I love the body lines and most everything else about the car though.
