About “Blue Bandit”
Bought this car on e-bay 4 years ago, had it shipped from CA. I've put about $5000.00 into it, (Engine dress up/interior work/light exterior work) I've really enjoyed this car, always wanted on when I was in High School. My Dad had a '68 Firebird for a while, probably where I caught the bug!
