Great music from King Sunny Ade, too!

If that car still exists we MUST get it to a zone meet or to the nationals.

That thing could not be street legal.
It's certainly wrong on several levels....

I hope that car was already headed for the scrap yard. After a short bit of fun that rig will probably sit behind someones house or garage for a couple of years and then get hauled to the scrapper. That is if they don't wreck it first acting silly.
Both cool and sad at the same time.

A perfect example of, Just because you can, doesn't mean you should.

I LOVE it!

'Looks like an old '50 4-door chopped up. 'Gotta be plenty of those to go around....lots of fun with this one, for sure.

Is this a recent endeavor? They followed a 1964(?) Impala in traffic for a little while early on.

Is this video clip a trailer for a movie or something; I don't understand the venue. ??? BP

I picked up the dvd at a Dollar Tree a couple of years ago. I couldn't pass it up for a buck. It's a pretty good movie too.
