This car has been primer grey all year long and apparently belongs to someone working at the local WalMart, 'cause it'* there all the time.

Prolly some poor cuss who has big dreams and a small pocketbook. IMO, if it weren't for the giant clothes rack on the back, the look would be headed in the right direction.

I thought that if he/she were to lose the wing and replace it with something a bit more appropriate, adjust the hood (that'* no way to get a cowl hood effect, lol), and finish it, it wouldn't be too bad.

Ditch those wheels and give it PanaSports. Ditch that wing and just go with a small-profile "ducktail" spoiler, and give it the Ford 302 (conversion kits are readily available now, and it wouldn't be a frowned upon combo since Ford and Mazda have done joint ventures in the past), and maybe then we'll talk.

But as it is, its Wally-Rice

maybe the owner likes the gray primer, i sometimes dont mind it in certain applications (but not this one ) but they probably didnt have the $$$, no health insurance would cut into the wallet
