There is so much that is wrong with that, I don't know where to begin. I just hope that it goes like hell because it sure looks like it.

Yes, but if you keep backing away slowly eventually it will fade from sight. The memory, however, may last a lifetime...

I think it said something about a cam and a header in the ad.

Alot of work into the bodykit being all molded in, though I would prefer it without aswell

Looks like a 72.
The wing isn't bad but the rear 1/4 is pregnant.
The body kit would be Ok with an abortion.
