I still don't see it. Greenhouse is different, belt line is different, only thing maybe is the rear end.

I looked again. Only thing is literally the rear end. Headlights are different, grille is different, greenhouse/belt line are different, side character line different...

Heh... Yes, but no money to implement them.

So... Eventually I want to drop in a ramjet 350, with TKO-500 tranny and custom floor shifter, baer brakes, and a DMR suspension kit.

But... I need like 12-13 grand for it...

Yes, it has a nice stereo setup. Stock deck is still in place to maintain classic look, but it has a nice head unit mounted in the glovebox w/ cd player and everything.
