About “Crash and Burn”
Well I bought this car with an HO 5.0 conversion already done. After a good tuneup she ran 14.4's all day long on 245/50/16 inch firehawks...Then I converted it to stick and it ran 13.4's all day long in same trim....Then I sold it.....As you can see..Someone couldnt drive..I added thsi car just for teh effect of it all..Enjoy
