Default bought me a firehawk





found #478 1995 firehawk wasting away beside a ladies garage. her 19 year old son owned it for a little over a year, it had been neglected and beaten on. filthy dirty, weather checked bald tires, the totl exhaust was falling off, bad headlight motor, etc. got it for pretty cheap, its all original 102k miles. i plan on fixing everything thats wrong with it and keeping it as a cruiser. the engine and tranny run great and shifts smooth, needs paint though.

That's a beautiful car. Love the white with the blue lettering on the side. There was a Formula Firehawk on Ebay just recently with the same color combo and he wanted 19k I believe.....so nice
