Probably not quite that bad, but an 8 litre-plus 70s Yank is not gonna get into double figures very often I wouldn't think!

This would sit nicely alongside my Cavalier. I'd probably do something about the wheels though.

I think you're right; in principle and in everyone's mind it's a thang. But it's in the UK, and specifically in Leicestershire, and if you said thang out loud you'd receive, and deserve, a proper kicking.
At the risk of being a bit controversial, running US domestic market cars in the UK really does seem to be almost exclusively the preserve of proper weirdos. The 70s and 80s stuff in particular seems to attract the sort of man who you wouldn't want to see loitering outside a secondary school.

Yes a few took it too far (IMO) with the boots and hats etc
I'd point out that when my Dad started dealing in them - in the 70's and most were driving around in Escorts and Cortinas, I was being driven to school in Camaros, Trans Ams and Lincoln Continentals with V8's, power everything and AC whilst you may have had an optional vinyl roof or wing mirrors !
