Grill should be red.

@anlauto you are correct. I actually like how it breaks up the color. Radiator blackout missing too.

based on the one pic - I think it's "radiator missing"

So is there a story here ? Did you just buy the car ? Restore the car yourself ? What's the original drive train ?

This car has a rich and rather unusual history to it. CudaFan posted some of it over on the E-bodies org facebook page.

Hopefully he can fill us in too.....I know there are a couple of us here that don't do the "Facebook" thing

Interesting car: That isn't the old "Mannix" Cuda is it?

Randy Gerstenberg...... No personal dealings with him & I loved the way the car looked 30 years ago.... Back when they got driven... He ripped a hole in the oil pane entering Kirkwood.... I believe he picked up a pan in the swap meet....

I saw a post on Instagram on the car and it was Randy reminiscing about it as someone trailered for him to check out.

I heard Randy was back in so cal. Been about 20 years since anyone heard about him.
