Why is it that sometimes you can just look at a car and know that it's from the East Coast? Good Lord!

I couldn't look at the pics past the thumbnails... but the text is hilarious:

*PAINT SCHEME*
CANDY APPLE BURNT ORANGE & BLACK TWO TONE WITH CARBON FIBER STRIPE PAINT JOB FUNCKY VW LOGO IN REALISTIC FLAMES AIRBRUSHED LIONS IN REALISTIC FLAMES WILD THING IS ALL PAINT, NO STICKERS

*ENGINE*
1641 ENGINE ENGULFED IN REALISTIC FLAMES WITH CHROME ACCENTS, FLAMED OUT ENGINE COMPARTMENT, CUSTOM MADE HORIZONTAL MUFFLER

Zero punctuation, upper-case caps, and "funcky." So much winning goin' on... it's hard to pinpoint where to start.

I'd roll it!  The sound must be awesome!   Reminds me of a white ghia that was entered in a Bug-In at OCIR.  Massive sound system! If I remember correctly it had a blue and red stripe with a tail? Anyone remember this car? Those trophies are probably from stereo sound contests.
