Vehicle history
Started out as a regular GT Premium. It grew into a custom everything. Full interior swap to GT500 seats to Boss rear seat delete. Airlift Performance suspension with Steeda & for Racing tossed in. Added a one off set of custom Drift R wheels. Custom painted hood was airbrushed and added. Boss intake manifold from Ford Racing custom painted. Newest addition is a 150 nitrous shot from NX Coyote plate kit... so much more done its all hard to list.
