Aw man, I was hoping to see at least one with white grill, bumpers and flares.

“...a sinking feeling like it was my own overtightening that borked my headset...” More likely, the seller knew it was bad and expensive to replace and that’s why he sold the bike.
It’s like toddler siblings. Older kid hits or pinches the younger one, making him/her cry. Then to confuse matters and avoid punishment, the older one starts crying and blames the younger one.
And it’s the best looking generation of Chevy/GMC trucks ever.
Unless square headlight mounts are designed and manufactured for a precision fit, the lights will always look skeewampus, as in the photo.
I think your time/money might be better spent on a completely enclosed building to house your collection.
Crevice: a narrow opening resulting from a split or crack
Seems like a you-hurt-me-so-I’m-gonna-hurt-you thing.
Oh yeah, I loved those things. They were the perfect shape for my feet. I had them with the green heel, navy heel and all black. But I’m a white guy who was raised in Preppyland. My peers all wore wingtips, Weejuns or Topsiders, so I was quite the rebel wearing tennis shoes with anything but proper tennis whites.…
Ford is the Truck & Mustang Company now, so they have to go big on the few vehicles they make.
Aw man, back in college/early adulthood, people my age drove some type of VW, the yet-to-be-discovered-deadly Pintos, nearly-obligatory-in-order-to-prove-your-manhood Mustangs, or Corollas just like this one. And they were like $1,500 brand new.
I love the guy who drives a Crown Vic on the Jeep trails around Moab.
Ah, the good old days when you had the choice of 2-door, 4-door, B pillar or no B pillar, vinyl or no vinyl, plus a wagon version, maybe a fastback, and hoods long enough to play hockey on.
Or just have the thousands of Bay Area macrame and textile artists weave yarn through the structure.
Now, if only it were that easy to fix the Golden Gate Bridge howl.
This period of automotive styling triggers horrible flashbacks. The ‘70s were not a good time for me. But since trends cycle back around (as in the current scourge of massive chrome grilles), I expect to see the return of external woodgrain, vinyl roofs and half roofs (with landau bars and opera lights), fake wire…
A.K.A bumper bosoms.
Aw man, one of the cleanest, most beautiful designs ever, totally uglified. I would be tempted to let it drown. Or pry off the hideous fiberglass/carbon fiber and lights and set them on fire.
The reflection in the first photo makes the rear fender look mangled. It made me think, yeah, a sports car should be driven—hard—with no concerns of keeping it in show condition. ;)
I went through the configurator and saw no options I would want enough to pay for.
