- Comment: We really enjoy this
car for its striking yellow paint job. You will need sunglasses to
look at it. The owner gave the car a faux-GTS look with his use of
contrasting black paint. He did not add the pop riveted fender
blisters or the car would really take on the look of a GTS, not a
hard thing to accomplish. We might also enjoy seeing the car
modified to look like a Group 3 Pantera. The interior is in terrific
condition as well as the front trunk area. The engine has the yellow
and black theme carried through and frankly, we think the result is
impressive. Another possible change would be to install a set of our
new
Le Mans billet wheels with some aggressive styled tires for
a real bad-boy type look. The bottom line is that this is a car to
be driven and does not need time, money or effort to complete. Just
use her and make changes as you see fit.
