Hey, stickguy, Got one for ya. Heck, I'm really tempted, but wifey says she doesn't want one quite that old. |

This is WAY more tempting!

Replying to: andre1969 (Mar 04, 2008 12:09 pm) Isn't it true they forbid one from entering one of those 1969-73 Imperials in a demolition derby because they'd destroy just about any other make entered? I heard that 1971-76 full-size Chevrolets are excellent demo derby contenders, though I would never dream of entering such a beautiful car in such a destructive sport.

| I'm sure I'm not the only one disturbed by it, but doesn't it make you wince when they crush 1970s American cars in monster truck shows or destroy them in demo derbies? Shoot, I don't want to have to go to a museum to see a 1975 Buick Electra Limited someday. | |

Replying to: lemko (Mar 04, 2008 1:17 pm) I remember when I was a kid and I went to my first demo derby, this would have been in the mid 80s. I remember a lot of mid-late 60s material in it, and a 60 Caddy flat top sedan. Even then I was kind of shocked something like that was being ruined. |

that one actually looks pretty nice, and certainly is reasonable. Assuming, of course, there isn't anything klugy about it. Icould live with that myself. Not qute sure what the kid would think about it! Just needs a set of alloys. Now, too bad it is way up in Matawan. If it was close I would go look.

Replying to: stickguy (Mar 04, 2008 2:25 pm) Remind me again where the heck you are located. I can't seem to remember. |

The wheels are worth more than the car. Depreciation.  Probably has 6 billion miles, but it's a Honda. Last of the lightweight sport coupes. This one just screams Andremobile.
