Yeah, I was driving that one with the top down in the snow, because it was so ratty it would hit you in the face. This cop saw me driving in the snow and did a double take and then a 180 to pull me over to see what the hell was wrong with me.

Then when he finally caught up to me at a red light, the points backfired so friggin loud when I goosed it, he thought I took a shot at him. He flinched and ducked, and we had a good laugh about it.

I picked it up for 400 bucks, pulled the motor and trans, and sold the body to my buddies uncle for 100 bucks.

I want a 75, not a 72. IMO the 75 is a much smoother and balanced looking convertable. Especially with the grille splitting twice. and the 1 piece taillights.
