    i like both the Sprints and Stallions but ill have to say that Stallions are my fave of the two. i'll own one of them one of these days, just not a red one. they're too common. i'd really like a blue one myself but maybe that's just wishful thinking :rolleyes:


    anyways, another congrats on the car. it looks great! :thumbs2:

    went to check my bumper on the 77, but it's got some small pitting across the top and a pretty bad scuff on the passenger side. it seems straight tho. if you're looking for one to rechrome, it'd probly be good.
    Anyways, it's still a real nice car. I'll have to get me one of those when i get older. I LOVE that black/white paint scheme. reminds me of a penguin, but it still looks cool.

    I know your mind is at ease now Ray. Looks like a great purchase. I know you left the LDO as is but this car >>>>>> I don't know. Look forward to seeing it.

    By the way, keep the big bumpers and keep it as original as possible, seriously.

    Thanks everyone. I'm pretty excited about getting it. I've always liked the Stallions. Went to look at one about a week before I purchased this one but it was a total rust bucket...and I mean total!!! It was a yellow one and was complete. He wanted $1900 for it. You'd have to want one real bad to restore that one. I think most of the guys that saw the pics agreed it was a good parts car.
    Anyway, when this white one showed up I just couldn't pass it up. There's just not that many of these things around. I gotta send in for a Marti report now.

    Ray - Nice Stallion!! Congrats! The black/white combo is my favorite ... Although I am not a fan of big bumpers they to look "right" on Stallions for some reason so keep them.
