You're right, Leonard; those certainly aren't 1961 tail light lenses![:0]

I don't think it's a 61 or a 59. The wing and hood were only used on the 1960.5 Pike's Peak race cars built by Andy Holman and Moody Granatelli . . .
That car has a real wow factor. Like WOW! IS THAT THING HIDEOUS!

Bet the wrong serial number plate has sheet metal screws. '59 dash, '60 front clip (or just the grill and turn signals) almost looks like '61 stainless trim placed on a '59 body. What are those tail lights off of? Dune buggy?Comment

I actually like the rear seat for fit. I wonder what it is out of? The rest of the poor car needs help in a big way.

At last, a car that's more of a 'hound dog' than mine!!The tail lights look like they came from a Mustang.The title probably came from a barroom buddy.I would like to know where the seats came from,however.What a piece of engineering![xx(] (Well, for three bills,I'd take it..)[}]

Tailights look like first gen. Mustang to me.

Dash pad and door panels would make it an early 70s model.

Wonder if his wife has noticed that the upholstery on the underside of the couch seats in the double-wide has ended up on the dash? (could that be the "something has come up and I have to sell it" reason?)
Oh, how insensitive of me!

UGGHH!![xx(] What on earth happened to that poor thing? Look at the description! What is "uncoating"? Is that the opposite of coating? "Long cruise 18 gal Fuel Cell"? Why not just call it what it is...a standard sized gas tank!! Sheesh.
