My old Belle before and after.. Then I sold it like a moron.. Cut the roof off a 67 coronet that was headed to the crusher. Bought the roof for 200.00 The original roof was trashed due to it being a vinyl top car. So thin in places you could poke a finger through.

Probably posted this before. Haven't done too much in the 20+ years I've owned it.

My uncle bought it new.

I agree... I posted an old car of mine and a roadrunner I put together its a driver.. But My car is embarrassing lol. I have no after but I can sure give a before. Funny thing I drove to SC to get this car. When cleaning it out I found old mail in it from the next town over from where I live. Small world I guess. Second guessing my choice of cars to work on lol. The price was right where it needed to be though.
