Cool. Nice price too, considering the new motor, wheels, body work, etc. Although a stock hood would look better with the smooth body. IMO.

Looks nicely done, but it's still using 4-dr doors instead of going with 2-dr doors.. I would also lose the huge cowl hood. Overall, it's priced right. I have an old friend that lives in West Islip.

Hate the lazy way of just welding the back doors on. The 4dr. front door looks out of place, and makes the front of the 1/4 panel oddly to long. I like what he did with the whole tailgate area. Wonder if the rollpan is just fiberglass.

I'm with the rest... it's nicely done, but the doors not being done with the longer doors gets me every time.... pricing is good though...

He obviously took the lazy approach...not to sound like the typical critic. When I wanted to build a 2-dr wagon, I wouldn't have done it without using the longer 2-dr doors. I've seen too many of them done that way. To me it looks out of proportion. I would've also used the rear doors for filler to complete the quarter panels.

I dislike the side marker fenders with the early header panel, and WTF are you supposed to do for a license plate mount?

Holy moly, you guys are crazy. I think it looks great. If the motor was done right, then it's a steal - but that's a big 'if'. I'd guess the interior is pretty rough due to the fact of no pictures of it.
