Hey John as a very young kid about 6-8 I remember seeing those!
THAT was a real Pimp mobile, loved them! LOLOLOLOL I saw one for sale on QUeens Buld. back aroun 1984 when I was first looking for a car. I told my Mom about it and when we looked at it she laughed! She said "Honey I don't think thats a good car for a 17 year old!" LMAO maybe if I was pimping myself it would have been. Hee Hee Thanks for the memories! Hey didn Honey Bear (I think that was his name) drive one of those in the TV show Police Woman? I could swear he did. I had a childhood crush on Angie Dickenson

There were a lot of these in Florida in the late 70's in both Coupe and
Convertible. Every now and again I will see one, especially in the Miami to Boca Raton area. Interesting photo in the parking lot of what was the MGM before the fire, with Barbary Coast and Caesers Palace in the background.

I can only see one (maybe two) import cars in that whole picture! My, my, my but how times have changed.
