It has never been raced on a track and has been driven on several long trips to many shows in the area. It never disappoints and always draws a crowd anywhere it goes. As stated earlier. the car was taken off the frame and completely taken down to bare metal to ensure there were no issues with the paint. The frame was upgraded to a pro-street set up in order to be able to withstand the amount of horsepower this car produces and to also accept the tubbed rear end. The car and frame were painted the beautiful red color that it now maintains. The under side of this car is as pretty as the body. Take a look at the undercarriage photos and you can see the detail and care that was taken in restoring this car. The rear end has been fully tubbed to allow wider tires in the rear end.
