    Looks repairable. Not really my style but I might see how it looks. ... unless someone talks me out of it.

    There's a reason it was lying on the side of the road....You wouldn't pick up roadkill, would 'ya?

    Gene I hope you meant you'll see how it looks on a tree for target practice.
    It might look OK on a pro-street 82 Malibu??:)

    I would clean it up and paint it,add a few stickers then hang it on my garage wall.

    It's funny because it is true. Back in 1985....your car was "the bomb" if you had a Hardwood scoop on it like that. Of course, cops would pull you over for "sight obstruction" and give you a ticket. :(

    :rofl2:Well, we actually bought the car with it already installed... back in 1996-ish. But I'm sure it had been on there since the 80s.
