This car is a serious machine!!! Not for weak at heart!!! Not for inexperienced drivers!!!! MUST RUN ON 108 or better Race Gas!!!!!NO WARRANTY OR GUARANTEE!!! ALL SALES FINAL!!! BUYER PAYS OWN SHIPPING AND MAKES OWN ARRANGEMENTS!!! ASK ANY AND ALL QUESTIONS PRIOR TO BIDDING!!!PLEASE if you are local arrange to view car before bidding. This car runs and drives excellent and most parts are all new within last 2000 miles. Engine and converter has approximately 400-500 miles on it. Car has only seen car shows and has never been on chassis dyno or raced yet. There is over $24000 invested in this car easily. engine alone cost $13000 to build originally. There are a couple dings on driver side front fender from same incident that are hard to get a picture of and have no paint damage. T-tops do not leak. All lights and horn function as should. All this car needs is the small couple repairs on the door and small paint touch up to be absolutely perfect. just get in start up and drive. bugs have all been worked out already. I take it to the car shows all the time and its a huge hit with the viewers. Car has also been at the Good Guys Eastern State Nationals and was noticed by Dixie Monte Carlo and he was hoping I would call him to chat about car. Also car was noticed and blogged about on the Malibu racing forum for its appearance at a large 800+ vehicle car show.
