You were warned by the topic title. We had a brown '80ish Regal that we wanted to trade in to a local dealer and the salesman said that his Manager doesn't take in any brown or yellow cars. Too hard to sell he said. We sold privately. Link to post Share on other sites

Well, How fast can one drive anyway? In my area 45mph seems about the fastest anyone can go due to the traffic! And this one runs the risk of having to stop at every gas station along the way besides! 2 Link to post Share on other sites

I would drive the wheels off that thing. That is just plain cool. Fix that bed up a bit and away I go. If I remember right it had a tow truck set up in the back bed.
