    It wasn’t that long ago that rubber bumper F-bodies (and Corvettes) from the Seventies were the laughingstock of the collector car market. They had wimpy, emission-controlled engines and were considered garish next to their older chrome-bumpered brethren. Over the years, 1977-1981 F-bodies, with their war canoe styling, were unshackled from all that drama and became the darlings of the resto-mod movement."

    Unmolested besides paint and stickers FOURTEEN mile 45 year old car that has grown hugely in collectors eyes for over a decade now.

    I’d say it was worth it. What are you gonna do, pass it up for the next one to come along? Good luck with that.
