Man!!!
that really sucks to hear. This car was coming along very nicely.

if you are going to go threw with parting out the car, i'd be interested in the gauges. PM me if you want.

Thanks guys, it definitely sucks to say the very least. I am pretty bummed out about just not reaching the goal itself, let alone actually having a ball driving the finished product.

All I have left from the part out (I have another build thread on a LOCAL forum) is the complete roller WITH all the MM suspension, Corbeau seats, and Saleen 18x9 and 18x10's, etc., and in the parts department I have the brand new Detroit Tru-Trac 31 spline 8.8" diff in the box with all paperwork and sticker, and the brand new AGR polished quick ratio rack and pinion. I moved almost everything in a little under 2 weeks with "fire sale" pricing. It hurt, but had to be done. I actually worked a deal on the brand new Dynatech swap headers with a member here, and the transaction was FLAWLESS! I should get the i-trader noob-***-"goose egg" outta the way now, lol.

ANYhow, I DID keep the complete 6.0L and all my Callies/Diamond 414cid stroker stuff for a rainy day. Maybe in a few months once all this crap with my back is hopefully sorted out, I can do something with it.

Thanks guys, -Greg

Cost me Like $260 I wanna say, and I have the receipt, so I'll double check. I wanted $250 picked up, then dropped it to $225, and honestly I am now @ $200 on the damned thing. The locals aint biting on the rack or diff.. Buyer pays shipping obviously, and I am not out to make money on shipping, I just dont operate that way.

Thanks, -Greg

I'm sorry to hear what happened, this was a great build. Good luck with the medical issues and good luck with the part outs (I know you are also parting out a camaro).
