Hardcore Roadkill fans will remember this 1966 Buick Special convertible from a pre-Roadkill video wherein David Freiburger, Mike Finnegan, and Rick Péwé pulled the abandoned car from a back yard, made it run, and road tripped it from Phoenix to Los Angeles. The Buick was also in episodes 5 and 18 of the Hot Rod Unlimited show. The car has been behind the scenes for roughly four years, so in this Roadkill Extra, Freiburger and Péwé show you more about the car.

One of the highlights of the inaugural Roadkill Zip-Tie Drags was the Fans vs. Roadkill Shootout. Ten participants were drawn at random for a race where Freiburger and Finnegan were competing in a variety of Roadkill project cars, and the racers chose off street-race style. In this Roadkill Extra, Steve Dulcich talks through the action. The racing was hosted by Gear Vendors and Baer Brakes.
