Default Ghost Machine for sale

Selling the Ghost Machine.

No reason other then I have done everything I can do to the car and I am looking to start my next project.

I am thinking of fixing up a 1962 corvette.

I have always loved that body style and something about a pearl white/machine accent with an LS7 slammed on HRE's just seems interesting.

I have thought about keeping the z06 while doing the older vette.

- But I barely drive this as it is so it would kind of be pointless to have 2 setting in the garage.

(10sec pass/First place in Autocross)

A short video of Ghost Machine at the '07 Z06fest in Bowling Green, KY. 10/18- 10/20/07. 1/4 mile & auto-x



Coverage:

The car is featured as the centerfold in VETTE magainze (Dec. 07' issue) Please ref: GHOST IN THE MACHINE

Car has been featured in a Nitto advertisement spread.

Car has won numerous first place trophies in local car shows in and around the Houston area.

Car is very well known in the online community.

------------------------------------------------------------------

The car is extremely reliable and has been a blast to drive and show.


Price:


Not sure how accurate KBB.com is but this is how I am coming up with the price of the car.

Current private party value of a 2003 Z06 in Excellent condition is

$37,700.00

To match what is done in interior/exterior modification's you will spend more then $50.000.00.

Anyone who has knows these cars can tell you this is a pretty accurate estimate with the work that has been done.

Please note: (receipt upon request I have all documents)

37700est
50000est
-------
$87700est

Subract the 50% rule for modifactions: $25000.00est

37700est
25000est
-------
$62700est




That being said I am asking $59.900

Please also note: For out of state buyers. (in the united states)
I will purchase your plane ticket if you decide to buy the car after review. But I prefer a local sale as I still would like to see it cruise the streets of Houston.

Big decision there Garett, but I'm sure your next toy will be even better. You saw the older Corvette in the Procharger booth at SEMA right? Sweet car, Procharged LSX with Forgeline wheels.

Still doesn't beat when NASA asked you to design the Leonardo MPLM or the Rafaello MPLM...

But impressive none -the- less.
