There’s nothing weird about it. The owner of the car buys and sells classics all over the world (this I know). A lot of guys I know in this trade have businesses set up in Montana. For a short duration of ownership, it’s much easier to register it under your business in Montana than dealing with CA. Not certain this…
HA! The owner is a good friend of mine. There was actually another friend in another Porsche (1977 Targa) that had to turn back half way because of car issues.
Four-eyed Fox Body Mustangs. I owned two when I was in High School and College. My last one was a 20th Anniversary GT. They are just horribly built cars, but I really loved them. My dad also had an ‘86 SVO Mustang. It was a highly refined version of the Fox Body, but it was still a Fox Body. Still want to get another…
Point of interest: The woman in the car is one-time Canadian pop “star” Avril Lavigne.
I’ll never not see that now.
I’m seeing a lot of 1970's era Bertone concept car design.
Too late for COTD?
I sent a message to my friend about it. He’s a CHP officer that does vehicle verification... hence his knowledge of the car. Can’t wait to see what he says.
COTW! Nice. My friend that met the wife and son knows how to reach them. Very curious about the asking price, and what would be needed to make it road worthy. Even if it’s horrible to drive, it would be a helluva conversation piece and restoration project.
I know a guy that knows what it is. Would you believe it started life as a 1969 Corvette? A one-off custom build.
I’ve been on many adventures with Paul Kramer, the camera car with the rack on top. GREAT GUY! His camerawork is also featured in a documentary on one of our adventures in Baja Mexico. He’s also a sponsor of many of these types of events with his business AutoKennel. Can’t say enough good things about him. A staple of…
To be honest, that is the shitty re-release overseen by Halicki’s wife. The sound fx, engine noises, and especially the VERY “Vanishing Point”-esque music are mostly removed and replaced. The only way to see the original release version, that I’ve found anyway, is to find an old VHS copy. I have a copy of that VHS…
Wrong one.
I made the cut! I can die now.
Ok, THAT is the answer I was waiting for. Thanks.
Question: Are all of the Monster Jam trucks “spec racers” now? Back in the old days of monster trucks, it was just guys driving crazy trucks they built on the side at their industrial machinery or off-roading businesses. They seem to be WAY more consistent now.
