The hood was replaced with the fiberglass GT hood. It has an extra set of rear tires and wheels for the track (hoosier quick time
pros that are on the car in the picture) It also has two more wheels and tires that match whats on the front that are not pictured.
The paint is fair and is an older paint job. There is some cracking and paint chips gone from the body. The vinyl top is in excellent
shape. Not advertising this car as a show car, but the car attracts alot of attention and conversations at the tack. The car is clean
but the car does leave very hard and runs hard (see performance). Also the car does have a new ralley pack that is not hooked
up due to the MSD, it also has a MSD shift light.

Performance: This car is driven and the street, but more so on the track. This past year this car was used as a back up car to the number 1 and 2
points holders at the local track here. The car usually sixty foots in the 1.70s, 7.80s in the eighth, and 12.20s in the quarter consisently.
