<VV> "66 Pilot - Turbo Convertible

[shortle]

Out of curiousity, what made you form the opinion this car is a "pile"? Is it the aftermarket wheels? The fact it's a Turbo? Since there is not a good pic of the RR tail area we cannot see if it has the correct turbo cutout. I don't know this car but based on the pics and description it looks pretty darn descent to me.
