So, is this TRAKable? I'd hate for my first post to get me into trouble (yeah, right!) I'm most concerned about the modern Accel coil... ...oh yeah, and maybe the paint, wheels and hot pink fur fabric playboy seat covers

Welcome to TRaK Zenrat!
:oWow, that thing is certainly radical!!!
For starters, the accel-coil isn't visible, and we have the general rule, that what we can't see won't hurt us...
The wheels and playboy seat-covers are my main objections against this extreme - and well-built!!! - custom, but in my opinion the overall "feel" of the build is just too modern. We have, however, had several long-haired custom interiors and some cars with wire wheels, so I won't completely reject it until I've heard what the others have to say.

Thanks Chris. The coil question was tongue in cheek (well, the whole post was really!) as I suspect stable pigments/dyes for flouro/hot colours were not around until after '69. The wheels are the small lowrider wires from the AMT '70 Monte Carlo. When did the small wheeled lowrider thing kick off?
