Would be worth the asking price if it were restored ORIGINAL. But as is? $7900 would be to much

Why with a 440 6 Pack? Do it to a 318 car.......

Probably not a real Six Pack car. If it were, it would be worth (probably) more than $150K restored original.

I like it too. Except it's too nice. I wouldn't feel right bouncing that shiny paint off trees and rocks...

Every year I go to the 4x4 jamboree nationals in Indy.  I like mildly lifted trucks done cleanly especially 73-79 Fords.  This year I saw several car based 4x4's.

How about a Mach 4x4.  This one looked like a NICE car...but I think the 4x4 thing is a total ization.

Now this was actually kinda cool.  Plus the little kids really dug it.

And this little Triumph was pretty sweet.  Had a cool metal flake paint job...I don't mind seeing something like this butchered up for some reason!

And these are the best looking body style truck in my opinion.  We had a '78 F-250 4x4 XLT ranger as a farm truck (actually I still have it but it is VERY rough) so I have a soft spot for them.

When I finally get the Tbird done I plan to get a rust free body and restore my '78.

I sure hope the mopar was not an original 6 pack. I love custom, but I'm not fond of them doing it to the likes of.........an original mach1, or an original hemi and so on. The mach1 above does look prety cool though. I just hope thay have all the stuff to put it back right as well.

I think its ugly. Looks like they just slapped a bunch of  that was laying around their front yard.

Not for me. I did love the Cougar that was on 44s though

That paint sceme screams "cover car on May 1979 issue of Hot Rod magazine"

The side pipes next to the running boards is a disaster. 

It looks cleanly done; don't get me wrong; but it's one gigantic clash.  The Mach 4x4 segways much easier.

I can't speak for the others but I would bet there story is something like this Camaro
http://www.4x4hp.com/index.html
Ron will sell ya this for 50k
Known Ron before he ever got this car. He does restorations out of a shop he built in his back yard. NICE ones, for example
http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&VideoID=13022369
very gifted guy. The 4x4 454 Camaro was a totally rusted out base model inline 6cyl auto with no title he got for free, He already had an originally restored 69(?) SS/RS and a Tubed out 70 or 71 Big block street/strip Camaro , what he didn't have was a 4x4 Camaro. Last I knew he got it titled as an Off Road Vehical... He calls it his Quad.

I remember the day he brought it home... we were all like "wtf you going to do with that "
he said "?  Your looking at a 454 Big block 3/4 ton 4x4 Camero there guys... you don't see it?"

We thought he was shiznitting us!
