My favorite car that I've seen there so far has to be the white mustang with blue stripes

The "kill it with fire" car makes me go WOW too, but with a very different expression on my face.

That's Frank Stagnero's car He's been running it since the early 70's

This Monza used to belong to my friend Rich. BIG flares and a Corvette rear suspension
Current owner put the LSx engine in it

Ever heard a more angry sounding street car?
