If its actually got a W motor in it thats badass. If so there is actually a lot of aftermarket support available for them now.

Why was there an issue with the dmv? Seems like all he wouldve needed to do was sign the registration and register it again, assuming it had paperwork.

Anyway it needs some wheels. Id go with some body colored steelies with chrome dog dishes. And lose the ricer vinyl flames.

1. the wheels are actually forged joints and he loves them.

2. the “vinyl flames” are painted on you jackass.

3. when the car was fully restored they gave it a new vin number. when the women looked this up nothing was found. this car has in fact been on the road in NJ for 10 years and my father has proof. so…here in lies the problem with NY DMV

You gotta admit those look like stick on flames though, right?

And from those pics the wheels look like they dont match and are missing the centercaps.

Reminds me of those hot rod t-shirts I wore as a kid back in '89. Very classic hot rod styling and real clean.
