Sorry T Bone, I liked em all, heck I even liked the mud buss and eagle fabricated bodies. What I didn't like was when they started using what I called the minivan bodies and all the interior sheet metal.

Coupe / Gremlin for me.

I have to say it is hard to choose as it is an impossible question in some ways.  The McMann Craig McCaughey #4 Sedan and Frankie's Pinto are just too damn cool looking. :-)

Sedan  (Has to have a lot of rake to it, prefer stock side window openings, and driver needs to be sitting way in the back)

Gremlin  (Narrowed, little bit of rake, prefer when it still has some of the actual stock Gremlin body lines/markings such as indents on 1/4 panel above rear tire, tail light section on back panel, etc.,.)

Got to agree in part with Elf30 in that I LOVE all the old stock (even altered) bodies.  But, I lean towards coupes over sedans and Gremlins over Pintos.  Scott Ely

Not ugly....  Different... cool... unique, but I'd root for it!

Three cheers for those who tried different looking stuff, and if Howie's still listening, I'd add Howie's yellow, (then black) #9C Falcon from around 1973 & 1974 to the list of stuff that was so different... so cool... that I was an instant fan, and had to root for it anytime it was on the track!
