Early 90's custom, supposedly shown. I brought it home last night, and trying to find out its story. I could swear I've seen it before years ago, but all the loud painted 90's customs were this bright. What I do know is that the car is in pretty good shape, nice strong 1915 with 44idfs. Done in early 90's and sat in storage till a few months ago. Bought it in Jacksonville, and is titled in Ponte Vedra Beach. I think I'm going to drive it as is, despite the pink wheels, just cause it's survived since the 90's. Fun as hell. |

90's? Sure? Looks more like 80's!
I'd drive it as it is too!
Like you said; a survivor!
Cool ride |

Kind of reminds me of this car...it was on eBay and the ending bid was $3,000. It was only a matter of time before he found TheSamba :wink:

| Yeah, he mentioned that Sherman built the engine. I was all set to have it painted, but the thing just gets such a crazy reaction. |
