I was actually home from work sick with this flu virus going around , got the car and we knew where there was one at a u pull

Hood is wrong its a t/a shaker with that scoop added guy destroyed the formula hood cut giant holes in it
Wheels are also wrong

Guy he bought it from was gonna make it a race car, gutted car left wireing but cut all the ends so we are replacing the harness
