Post by: dkp_cobra on January 11, 2010, 13:29:27: Does anybody know this car? Is the price really good for such a modified car (GM V8 engine and gear box, Jag diff., sidepipes, bad gauges etc.)

Post by: Bob Smith on January 15, 2010, 02:26:06: The sidepipes, Grant steering wheel and the B&M shifter would have to go, along with that color. The Aceca's body & glass looks good. Make changes as you drive and enjoy the car.

   It still looks like it has the potential to be a viable resto project at that sort of money though, depending what horrors could lay beneath! [:)]
