History of Hulk Hogan Mobile
 
Hi all,


Does anyone know the history of this car?


https://www.edmunds.com/chevrolet/co...2/?radius=6000


It's what I call a Hulk Hogan Mobile, yellow ext. w/ red int. I can't imagine many of these were made across all year models. Do we have any data regarding how many were made?


Looking through the pictures of the car, the owner has gone to great lengths to ruin the car, but who knows, maybe its salvagable.



Thx.

The car was bought and sold few time last few months the interior wasn?t originally red. But one car was made yellow/red but not this one.

So I made the 25 hour 1000 mile round trip to buy this car from the winning bidder at the Mecum Auction. I was impressed when I saw the car in person. The interior is much nicer than in the pictures. The decorative wrap on the dash and door components looks amazing in person. I loaded the car on the trailer without driving it and headed home.

I had to work today about 60 miles from my house. Why not take the new car!

Warmed it up, wiped the windows off and headed out!
Turns out the car has an aluminum flywheel, 4:10s, a short shifter, and doesn?t have a factory windshield and of course a 421.

I put 100 miles on today. No lights, no issues. I added a quart of oil prior to heading out. So far so good. I give it a huge thumbs up!

Glad it came here. That car has had good modifications. Also, some good maintenance in the last year.

You know some history on this car? Appears to be a repaint, I only say that because the door strike pins still are yellow. New tires, killer brakes! 38,800 miles currently.

I do know the cheapest way to get a 441 is to start with a 421!
