I know it is kind of disgusting to let the birds poop all over it, but... I recently located some T Top Ford Thunderbirds I posted further up in the AACA Buy/Sell and spotted this T Top Regal.  

 

Is this interesting or just a base Regal with a T Top?   

 

I have always liked the Collonade cars, especially the ones more highly optioned with bucket seats and console.  I can never tell the difference between a Regal and a Century except I like the body color grilles on one of the two, I can never remember which. 

 

 

Part of the issue with some of the 73-77 era 2 door mid sizers is that no interior trim is available - or wasn't the last time I looked - from the popular muscle car catalog folks, where a person can almost build a new Skylark from the catalogs. 

 

So I always look for decent door panels and dash pads, etc.  Seats too but they are usually bad no matter what by now.  This car is so gross, from the bird poop to the interior, so I see no way anyone pays $2500 for a non running 77 Regal even with T Tops. 

 

Nonetheless, I think this would be a nice car to massage a Buick  350 in using TA Performance internals to 325 hp, maybe put the 15 inch version of the BRW on there, paint would look better in lipstick red, black, maybe a dark blue but not that green.
