This car is presently under destruction in order to restore or should I say build. This car has never nor will ever see the drag strip, it is intended to be a driver. It has travelled many miles per week to cruises and shows. Its gas mileage is as good as most trucks or SUV's, about 15 mpg on the highway, but who cares about gas mileage when you're having this much fun.
