    I hate it's trashed man. Post some more pictures of that baby! The underside was awesome.
    I would have parked it in the yard as art.

    I've got a '76 that's worse then that, floors and trunk pan almost totally gone. I drove it 150 miles. :yikes:

    Do you still want that '77 4 door body?

    This one has been sitting in Alabama for years rotting, floor shifter, buckets, tried to buy it but he is going to fix it someday, still there and probably will be for a long time.

    Nah, I like my car just not the transmission. My C4 is fading fast and if I have to go to the insane amount of trouble to pull it out I may as well replace it with something cool like a stick shift!

    It's cars like this that make me sad. When the guy does let go of it, more than likely it'll be too far gone to save.

    What part of Alabama was it in? I have family in Alabama and when I'm visiting if I see it, I'll know not to stop to look at / ask about it.
