    Yeah, I think they are Mustang, but it's hard to tell exactly.

    It seems like pictures of that car have been posted here before. I remember them being mis-aligned. It wasn't for sale then though.

    Is it just me or do some people use the term "all original" a little too loosely? Looking at that car "all original" is about the last term that comes to mind...

    Agreed.

    They need to work the term "rust bucket" into the ad as well.

    Those would be the 73 Mustang tail lights. You would think that a person would at least try to line them up better. - Matt

    Those lights are growing on me.
    They look good when done right.

    That yellow mav is by far the greatest looking with the Stang lights. I like it, but I'd rather have them brazilian tailights, I gotta ask chirt how much and where did he get them.
