Love everything...except the leopard but hell I would still rock it. Why no headlights though? No affiliation with the seller.

Headlights are in the grill, behind flip up doors. Can see the doors if you look closely at the grill picture.

Yeah those are cool cars.

I like the old school look, but it just doesn't look right with that wheel/tire combo.

That Riv must have either a ridiculous reserve or a lot of issues; it's been on Ebay for a long time.

trust me, you would dump A LOT more money if you were to go buy a riv, chop the top and get it to the point this car is at now

Maybe, But i would not start with a car that is a beat as this one. I have talked to the guy, the reason the side windows are not is is the chop was not done right. What do you think the underside of this car looks like based on the interior and motor?
