Take the spoiler off the roof and all the Mickey Mouse stuff "flame throwers and much, much more.... Also yells out "Tarzan" call. "
and the car itself actually looks OK with those Centerlines on it and the stance is fine

-Must see to appreciate.

Are those flame-thrower kits available through Ecklers? I need something to keep cats from walking on the hood...

Whats up with the flames coming out of the hood?
Why would someone want to do that.

I have no idea if this is somekind of showcar like lowriders that make their cars bounce and have contests. Is there a flamethrower contest out there too?

Are those the nitrous tanks mounted on the rear deck?

I've had flames shoot out the hood of my 454 Monte, not really something to strive for. The listing reads: "rare find". Let's keep it that way!
