He bought the bottle from a guy that had it in a monster truck that had been on fire, and never got it tested prior to using it.

"A bottle blew up sitting in my buddy’s driveway.
Thanks god no one was driving it!
This F-Body “was” a mint car before this"



Sure got some bald *** tires on it for being "mint" and I dont think they are drag radials.
