I lost my Daddy in 2003, my birth giver told my uncle to crush the Ghost (primer grey) in 2004 cause she got a 90 something firebird. In 2020, my uncle found me online and asked if I heard what happened to Ghost. Told him I was told he crushed her....NOPE! He's held her all these years.... so hoping within the next year, I can get out of Ohio and get a chunk of land down south with a shop, and get Ghost back road worthy... You give me hope, THANK YOU

Gotta bring her back to life as a street cruiser with the same paint scheme. Derek, you are without a doubt the most entertaining and informative gear head I've ever seen. Gives me all kinds of inspiration for my 66' Biscayne.

@jamescaldwell20954 жыл бұрын
Burnout car would be the most budget minded. Idk that I'd trust a rusty patched frame if it were to crash. And with all that suspension damage, it'd all need replacing. Burnout cars are pretty low speed. No cage needed(depending on the track) and no real upgrades besides about 400hp needed. I'd leave the whole outside as is. Maybe patch the rust Pretty cool story to buy and drive it 600 miles home. Its fit right in at any cleetus and cars.
