I knew a guy a few years back with a ratty looking 68 GTO with a hideous $100 bright blue Maaco paint job.
Car show was over and we were watching guys doing burnouts as they left.
He said to me 'I can't do that with my car 'cause everytime i nail it it lifts the front tires three feet in the air and i'm afraid it might break something'.
He was dead serious. His said his car had a 'built' 455 and about 500hp.
It looked and sounded like a greasy worn-out stocker with Ford blue on everything including the grease.
