Template:Infobox vehicles The Thunder-Rodd is a vehicle which appears in Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories.
Design
Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories
The car is based on a 1948 Ford De Luxe, which has been modified into a hot rod, complete with low ground clearance, wider wheels, a chopped rooftop, flaming paintjob, and a red interior. Bizarrely, the interior of the vehicle does not include a steering wheel.
The vehicle is wanted by Love Media for their Car-azy Car Give Away.
Performance
Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories
Performance-wise, the car has great acceleration and a good top speed. However, the car lacks grip, resulting in less responsive cornering (the latter occasionally leads to the car sliding out of control), but compensates with good brakes.
