well see how the auction goes and ill let you know.

 

Sounds good! I posted your ebay post from the last page on the "A Gear Head For Life" Facebook page and tagged you.

 

yup got it. thanx

just picked up some tr6 spark plugs for it.

 

kinda funny. almost looks like im goin to finish this car before it sells.

test fit my gauges but gotta paint the plate.





dropped it off to get a little exhausted:



ran out of time and battery before he finished:



oh look one of the cars im trying to get after the mustang is gone, they had 2 at the shop (must be a sign!!):

 

You're so close! Finish it! ;-)

 

lol.

lowered the price again. want it gone so i can buy a lexus IS300

 

hey look another IS300. im tellin you its a sign!



muffled now!



painted the bezel thing and wired up the gauges, doesnt look too pretty but itll work. i forgot after my idea of keeping the stock lens that these gauges are touch screen programmable. lol. theyre full sweep, LED, and have warnings. not bad for $295 shipped.

 

That is a nice setup on the gauges. Just take it off ebay and work on it a little at a time and when you have completed it to where it is running and driving, take the supercharger and intake off and put on a regular intake and drive it for a bit. get a vinyl for the back window in about 1 inch letter that says "if you can catch me and don't have a badge, we can discuss you buying it for yourself" or FOR SALE

 

Lol. Don't think it's going to sell on Ebay. Getting offers of $2,000-3,000. If I was desperate I'd let it go for that much but not right now.

 

Finish it,race it, profit !

 

sold it to my buddy yesterday for dirt cheap. just want it gone and wanted the money for a down payment

i dont think im doing anymore swaps for a while. i dont care to drive fast and i always lose my *** on them moneywise when i try to sell them

 

What long tubes were you running?

 

They were 351 Ford headers with LS flanges. My buddy that bought the car built them when he had his 5.3l notch.

 

Will he finish the car and have a build thread?

 

So you tried to swap cars to make money off them? Your in the wrong game my friend.

 

dont think hes goin to finish the build thread.

no i wasnt trying to swap to make money.

 

damn shame i was hoping to see this finished

 

Agreed.

Sometimes you just have to take a step back and center yourself in order to avoid frustration. Things like this take time as you know.

I was really excited to see this come together.

Buy it back and finish it please! Or at the very minimum, please document the rest of the build for him.

Doug

 

damn I was looking forward to this build. Should have hold on to it.

 

I will be first to say congrats on selling it to a fellow swap enthusiast. Sorry to hear you lost a ton of money but builds like this never really do turn a profit. With our builds come more of a personal satisfaction than anything else.

Ask your buddy to post a follow up to the work or at least let you document some if it if you don't care to. A lot of guys on here wanted to see how this would turn out, myself included. Good luck with your next vehicle and hope its an LS powered ride of some sort.
