Thanks Martin and thank you for taking care of my good friend Jay.
The car is officially for sale too. Yes it is true no bs. I have been bombarded with PMs asking about a price. Here it is, going to list it for $25k or best offer all done. If someone wanted it the way it sits and finish the last 5% come and get it for $23,500. I had it listed without the build last year for $16k. The money is very fair for everything I have done.
I already have another car bought.

If you knew me well, which you do not you would know it is what I do. Again it is no sweat off my back to build cars. I fell into deals along the way building the car and feel like someone could better enjoy the car. I am in house mode and would rather have the cash in the bank for that project.

Didnt mean to come off as a jerk or disrespectful, but i never understood why people put money into cars, build them, finish them, then get rid of them and not enjoy them. Like you said I dont know you, but I think you built a badass car, but wouldnt you want to enjoy it for a little bit? Selling a car to fix your house should always be a priority over toys so props to you for doing that because a lot of people have it the other way around.

Hahahah Dave you are right. I will see you in the fall with Jeff's car and look forward to it.I would have too just burned out. After the house is built you will see me in a C6. For now the new ride will work.
We don't have a track anymore.

Thanks to my great friend Dustin, it is back together with the new bracket and idler. Also needed new AC belt and tensioner. Ended up having to take the water pump off to get the new AC belt on, what a chore. Found out how to tension the A&A bracket correctly and it is a completely different car now.
Everything is spot on now, and it is scary under part throttle boost. Putting fresh plugs and an oil change today and it will be on the dyno soon.
Its bittersweet as the buyer is waiting in the wings to pay for it as soon as it is tuned.

Did this vette get tuned? Curious about what the 5.3 put down.
