A 1980-ish Granada with monkey lights and side pipes. I do not understand this car.

I understand that it is awesome.

Your use of the term awesome is curious. Usually cars like this are packed with trash with just enough room left for the driver.

Please have a coyote and a T5 under the hood. That would be awesome.

This car is awesome and you should feel bad for your lack of understanding.

That would be awesome if it were so.

There is nothing to explain, it is just awesome simply because it exists .

Broke teenager and a JC Whitney catalog. In the 80s this would have been the result. You got grandma’s mercury when she stopped driving and you had a job pumping gas on weekends, after buying Milwaukee’s Best and Marlboro Reds you had some coin left to make your ride cool.

I was a teenager in the 80s but would never have considered spotlights on my car. Air shocks, headers, and rims was the route I took. But, to each his own.

A Malaise era turd with some JC Whitney accessories rates as awesome? Errr , ok.

Depended on your skill level, access to tools, and how much you took from the movies you rented while trying to sneak behind the curtain to get to the porno room, Milner’s Model A had lake pipes so those were cool, the Mustang in the outsiders had spotlights so those were cool.

Me I just stuffed as many speakers as would fit in my car and did nothing else.

I knew a few guys with crazy speaker setups, usually with a power amp from Kmart powering the whole thing (at 10% distortion). I made do with a crappy Sparkomatic cassette radio, after ditching the FM converter my brother put in previously.

I had 2 of JC Whirtney’s finest 12 inch woofers, they we called Black Phantoms, 2 Pyle Driver 6X9s full range, 4, 5 inch mids from R adio S hack 100 watt amp fro m P yle, 450 watts for the subs from JC Whitney and a Clarion tape deck running the entire show. This was all shoved in a 1st Gen Nissan Pulsar, no not the one with the hatch the ugly one with the Sunroof

All that jammed into a Pulsar? Impressive.

This looks similar to one I recently posted, except it was an immaculate sedan and for sale for $2,300. I dig all of the low key fox body variants.

Kinja'd!!!

Oh yeah! My 1st car was a ‘79 mercury zephyr ghia edition with the 302. Milwaukees best, pack of reds, and a shitty amp with two 12's... I loved 1990!

But sidepipes negate that.
