Default The end of the flare / panel paint era....

Day 2 was gettin' pretty tacky by the mid-80s and here is the evidence. But who are we kidding...I'd drive it!

Deluxe interior with a bench seat has to be unusual? Did not decode trim tag to see if it was correct for the car.

Yes bench seat is correct and it was originally Rallye Green.. Rare combo.

A lot of the flare stuff started with Motion. They flared everything, and they had great coverage in many of the car mags back in the day.Joel's style and design went way beyond the cars he built. JMHO

Thank God the 70s are dead. I don't miss it. That era destroyed a lot of beautiful muscle cars..., but that's just my opinion which should only matter to me. If you like it, more power to ya...
