Car was at Branson Z Fest and you can see pictures and videos of it on their website. Bransonzfest.com under forums then click bzf2010 button there some guys were cool enough to list some pictures and videos. One I really like is the one named "small cam dump" has some great pictures of the car running down the track. Heres a link to one of them.

Sure wish I had drag radials on it. Times would drop by over half a second. Blowing the tires off thru 3rd gear. Keep in mind this is a "stock" crate engine imagine what it would do with a big shot of nitrous or a nice fat turbo. Being 600 lbs. lighter than a mazda miata is a good thing.

Here is the link to the ebay add where i'm selling the car.

One thing I didn't mention on the ebay add is that I will deliver for a reasonable price (gas + groceries + plane ticket = delivery)

Thanks for looking,
Stewart

I'm about to move soon and have a pretty extensive collection of cars. So to make my life easier and hopefully someone elses better. I'm gonna throw in a 1968 mercedes that I picked up last year. It Doesn't run but everything is there, and doesn't look like it would take much to get it going. Its an old straight 6 gas engine car. Plenty of room under the hood for a small block conversion. The thing would make a cool cruiser painted flat black with some red rims. Ratrod style. The car is straight and the interior is amazing for a car of that age. Not a single rip or tear in the black leather seats. Made back when Mercedes were hand built. I have a clear title and a bill of sales for whoever buys my 240z.

Thanks,
Stewart

Its a R200 unit out of a 1987 280zx turbo car. Came factory with clutch style limited slip. I went in and replaced all the bearings and removed 2 spacers from the clutch packs and added more clutches. I shimmed the breakaway at belween 90 and 100 ft lbs. 3.70 gear ratio. Some 4.10 gears in there would work nice with the 6 speed.

New ebay listing 22k to bid with no reserve. Thats over 5k less than what I have invested just in the parts and the car.
