Default My car, possibly for sale. Gauging interest...

I came across another car that I want instead. Looking to see what I could get for mine. It is set up for drag racing and has gone 11.57 @ 116 with the stock internals and a 3150 raceweight. Never been sprayed with nitrous, and the car runs 100%. Only problem was that I bent the 10 bolt rear end housing, but I am getting another 10 bolt with an Auburn posi & 3.73 gears put in on Thursday. And it has a few small scratches, but nothing severe. Other than that it is in great condition. It has 63,360 miles on it, and I just drove it to the track 80 miles, made 3 mid 11 second passes, then drove home all while getting 20 mpg. The car was driven on the street and I never had any problems with it other than the rear end. I honestly don't know what to ask. I paid $9,000 for it this time last year and has over $9,000 in mods, but I know you don't get everything back out of it. Shoot me some offers.

Here is a link to my FQuick page with all of the mods and the items that have been removed for weight reduction. (I don't feel like typing it all out) http://www.fquick.com/garages/viewvehicle.php?id=2213

Wouldn't your car on a 100-150 shot be just as fast? Just thinking out loud....

Yes, it would be. His was low low 10s, and mine is 11.50s how it sits now with stock internals and on motor. But if I sprayed my car I would have to change the converter as it was built for max effort on horsepower. I will prolly switch next year and thorw a 175 shot at it just to see how it runs.

His car was low low 10s? I always figured a 10.50.

I raced him with my bottle almost empty, and he beat my by what he got on me when he stole the hit. I'm sure he was out of it at the end, but still, it never seemed like it was ever a low 10 car.

The car went 11.20 on motor and he changed out the trans and converter and was then spraying it. It should have gone low 10s, even with a 125 shot, but you know he was spraying more than that.
