lookie here...Impact Edition
A visitor of 73-87.com sent me a photo of his '76 Impact...this thing is amazing. While most will mock the graphics and styling, I think its an amazing survivor and beautiful as is...period.
I have been promised more pics and info, will share when that happens.

Re: lookie here...Impact Edition
Love it! especially the lower rear fender extensions on front and rear and cab "spoiler". Unique paint scheme! Would it be considered a COPO of some sort? If so, how many other different ones are there??? friggin' love it!

Re: lookie here...Impact Edition
Thanks for sharing Jeff, Most all SE vehicles were cool in their heyday and to find/own one in such great condition today makes them even cooler !!!

The wood paneling in the garage is a nice touch.

Re: lookie here...Impact Edition
What color combos did this type of truck come in? I am pretty sure there was a blue one in the neighborhood I grew up in.

Re: lookie here...Impact Edition
I am sure the owner would love to join the site and share more info on his truck when he sees this thread.
 Looks like I'll just keep the info on 73-87.com when I get it.

bigblock73, I think we all appreciate the truck and even dig the atmosphere. I don't believe any of us mean to be insulting or disrespectful. I was 10 when that truck came out, I love the area. |
