long story short. It was mines then my pops he got sick with cancer and sold it and passes away and I had to get the car back in his memory and now trying to finish it up the right way and run 10s as he wanted and then maybe even a 9 sec pass. its always been a street car. when we had it it was built in memory of my aunt she passed away of cancer and that's why there was pink involved. Ill be leaving some pink on the car and majority will be blue for the colon cancer support and his memory.
