I don't dig the hair-drier but
I really think that is a really cool car.

I know the previous owner personally, but as far as who the new owner is, I really don't know. How about posting some of that video?

i remember that car, the owners name is micky shock,he was going through a divorce a long time ago and he hid the car from his wife behind a barn out here for many years. the stripes shrunk and cracked from the sun beating down on it but i believe the paint may be o kay. not sure though. maybe ken barnhardt may know of the condition of it.as far as i know, micky is the original owner and still has it somewhere out here.
