![]() ![]() 2 starts to twist.ĭino invites Tobey and the youngest member of his crew, Petey, to go for a spin in three Swedish Koenigsegg Agera supercars. It’s an offer the cash-strapped and struggling mechanic-cum-racer can’t afford to refuse.ĭino actually manages to fetch $2.7 million for the fabled car-with payment made by a rich business magnate and negotiated by his beautiful assistant, Julia Maddon. And he promises to give a quarter to Tobey’s garage. ![]() But he thinks Tobey’s is the best outfit in the country to finish work on a very special project: hot rodder extraordinaire Carroll Shelby’s uncompleted final Mustang with Ford.ĭino thinks they can get $2 million for the 900-horsepower monster when it’s done. Dino is another local who nabbed Tobey’s ex-girlfriend Anita, and became an Ind圜ar champ before setting up his own high-end tuning operation in California. And so Tobey does more than just half-listen when the much-loathed Dino Brewster shows up with a lucrative offer up his sleeve. Tobey’s garage is on the verge of foreclosure, a secret only he knows.
