Don't see these every day. Pretty cool. I like the rear spoiler.

I used to see a bunch (couple dozen?) of these beasts sitting at a body shop or wrecking yard off I-35 around Kansas City, MO.
Don't know if they are still there as I haven't been there in over 10 years. Pretty cool to see so many in one place, considering the low production numbers.

I had a neighbor (an older lady who lived on my paper route, 1974-76)) who had one too! I remember thinking it was too much of a boat to be performance oriented but I liked its look.

Although no cool Hurst hoods or wings, personally I always wanted one of the '70 Sports Fury GT's...available w/ the Six Pack!.

They actually are good-looking and sharp cars with a nice, under-stated paint scheme. Does anybody happen to know though, what one of these Behemoths weigh? That rear quarter panel is a serious amount of sheetmetal!

There was one out there many years ago with a 426 hemi. I cant recall if they ever proved that it was factory installed or a dealer upgrade but it was really cool nonetheless.
