OK, this is just my opinion, but I kinda have a dog in this hunt. This is the worst clone/restoration job on a '68 I've seen yet, plus the price is in the "what's he been smoking" category. Pathetic paint match for Seafrost Green, he didn't even remove the Malibu emblems or paint the grille, '70 stripes and hood pins, no buttons on the seats, weird dash and gauges (but I'd like them in a street rod), long water pump that buries the fan in the shroud, and how about the windshield wipers and lower windshield trim?? Gotta love all that undercoating on the bottom, and the wing nut ground for the fuel pump takes the cake.:speechless:
It does have shiny paint and nice wheels, but.........

Gee Bill, wish you would quit beating around the bush and tell us how you "really" feel :confused2: :biggrin:

I see some quality work in certain areas and some of the opposite as well. I can't speak for the colour match, but it is a pretty colour in my opinion. Man, I hate all the gimmicks and the background on the listing web layout :sad:

The price doesn't really deserve a comment :doh:

That bit of dog's breakfast has been kicking around ebay for a while now. I think its more of a patheic paint match for Grecian Green myself :)

I found it amusing that they claim that it has an AutoCheck report:noway: wont work on a VIN less than 17 characters!

The wingnut is a quick disconnect for the ground wire :) I must be weird....but I like that color (or colour, as Don would say :) )

Bill, I don't know what your problem is? If that is a $35k car imagine what your car is worth!
