That's a Cutlass Cruiser, not Custom Cruiser. Why would you put a '59 Chevy dash in there? Agreed, I'm not fond of the B pillar. But hey, to each his own!

Looking at this, I think I would have looked into putting ElCamino window glass into a Cutlass 2dr door , and used part of the B pillar from the ElCamino

I might be a buyer @ $1,000.00 just to enter it into a local demolition derby.

Figured out what the louvered vents are for...the vehicle is a kettle cooker (i.e. a big Weber grille), they fire up the engine, place a grille over the carburetor, close the hood and tailgate and cook the fish right there for you.
Red Green would be all over this.

I've always wanted a property with a cliff and a rock bottom to throw things off, like this car.

My thoughts. Too many louvres, get rid of the 80's paint scheme, do something else with the grill (tubular is too...blaseah). I would like to know how the converted it to a two door though.
