Not my kind of F, but looks good and the price seems right. Doesn't look like it would take much to get it in prime shape.

I'm glad somebody was but I hate to tell you that disco sucks, by 79 the local disco was a country bar.

I was there too. For the most part, it was a pretty good time! Today, with everyone so afraid of being different and driving only black, white and silver lookalike SUV mobile pods, of course this Kit Car would be extraordinary. But even back in the '70's, this would have been really obvious. I don't dislike it, it's very interesting, but it's not something that I would have wanted much then or now.

In 1978, this was the car everybody wanted. A black "Smokey and the Bandit" Trans Am. Kit cars just weren't all that popular. Not much of a selection from Ma Mopar in those days. If you REALLY wanted a fast Mopar, I think the 360 V8 Little Red Express Truck was the quickest back then.

According to magazine road tests at the time this was faster than that but the Little Red Express truck was the fastest of them all. *the magazine ad isn't real.
