About “The Beast”

This car was the pre bandit for smokey and the bandit. This car has the last year of the 455 big block engine. With these characteristics, only 319 OF NON T TOP 455 4 SPEED were made. That is so rare, maybe a quarter of these cars are still left. This car has a extrodinary amount of power. Just had a new clutch and line lock put in. I will upload and send a video invite later today.
