Not at $5000. What's that in the hatch? It can't be a nitrous tank, can it?

The worst thing about this car is the goofy fake vents on the side.

A Nitrous Tank that big, to fill it would cost more than the car itself. Looks like a $200 car to me and that's being generous.

I hate that color. And the 2 tone on the back hatch doesn't even look even!!

Reminds me of the old Suburban 2 tones colors from the '80s

New audio system! However, either the radio was on when they took the pictures or the retractable antenna no longer works.

The two tone paint job isn't even designed well. Why does the fender have the light color triangle on it. Ugh.

I am originally from LA...It was Earl Scheib? Right? Seems like dad was a frequent customer, if memory serves correctly.

Here is an old one! Not as old as the real cheapos...I was already 18 when this one was made..
