I agree, I wouldn't call it a kit car. Its a "re-body". More specifically a 1971 Coronet. While you're throwing terms around, calling this car something other than a 1971 Coronet is as crazy as licensed reproduction parts counting as nos theory.

I should have mentioned the main reason the car was covered outdoors was because it leaked water through the glass like a sieve. Those were the only two pictures they sent me.
