70s "mixed use" muscle car . . .

Buick Electra 225

Friday night it could be a respectable street cruiser /stop light dragger with the 455 & 4bl carb
Saturday morning it could pull the boat to the lake with 6 passengers for water skiing
Saturday night it could double as the 'love shack' with ample leg and head room

RIP Pop, no disrepect to your baby, and thanks for letting me 'barrow the car' on the weekend.
