Ventura
Apollo

Not sure, but I'd hope they figured that more than they did the fact that "No va" means "doesn't go" in Spanish.

I think it was an "outer space" thing...

( Charleston Heston's G/F in 1st Planet of the Apes movie ) ?? Not.

Kinda wild that they got some much use out of the same body style of car and unfortunately even lumped in the GTO in there for that one year.

Looks like that is certainly a nice one. I'm sure he's got way more $$$ into that car than it'll ever be worth.

I agree......

It seems like a project for the love of cars....... That is worth more than the dollar amount.

He had a very nice suspension......

That's what they used to do. Think Chevelle/Cutlass/LeMans/Skylark.

The 2nd car I owned, bought in '76..... 1973 Chevelle Malibu. I bought it from a builder.... It was original inside / out, (350cid).... Photo taken in 1988.
But it had a steering brake installed. It was planned to be a movie stunt driver car, but got shelved.

Funny.... the red Dodge....... That's what happens when you forget your tail gate is down, backing up to trailer.

Something like 20 / 25 years ago federal law automotive design required all vehicle front ends be "pedestrian friendly", if you slam into an idiot Jay walking.
