The motor only has 400 miles on it. The tranny around 2000 and the rear about the same. Tires like I said are brand new. This car was built to run, it pulls HARD all the way to 6900. Right now I need to fine tune the tune (lol) but after that it should not have any problems.
The Bad:
Hood has a small fingernail chip in the paint
The driver side door skin has a small crack by the mirror
One of the rear Fikse wheels has a small crack in the inner hoop along the lip. Forgeline said they could replace the hoop for 150 dollars.
Driving manners are very VERY tame. Even with that big of a cam it still drives very well. The motor is set up to handle a 300 shot. I never sprayed the new set up, but wanted it to be able to handle a 200 shot easily. The car has not been buffed since I started the whole rebuild last year, so a good cleaning and a buffing is needed.
I'm sure I am forgetting a lot but it's late and I just wanted to post it up right now that it is in my head. As I said before, I absolutely love this car. I get compliments on it pretty much everywhere I go and it is for sure a head turner. Frankly, I am tired of always working on it (in a good way, not repairing stuff) and am getting to the point where I NEVER race. I am absolutely positive I will miss it, but right now I just think it would be good to see it go to a good home. Now I know the bank books the car at around 6-7K. And I know I will never get what I have in it. But here's the break down, I bought it around 2 1/2 years ago for 10K. I have put around 8K into the car. All of the parts are quality parts and no corners were ever cut. This thing was a beast before the 383 and now it is even stronger, I would love to take it to the track once before I sell it, but then I'm afraid I will want to keep it.
In no way do I HAVE to sell it. I'm just tired of seeing it sit and with the money I would probably buy me a new truck. I am just not into the car scene as much as I used to be.
I would like to see 12,500 the way it sits right now. Please, I am open to offers but DO NOT low ball me. Like I said, I do not need to sell it.
If you would like to call and talk about it, just give me a ring. I work M-F from 10-6 and some weeknights and weekends at my second job. If I don't answer, leave your name and a number and I will get back to you. Or you can email me.
Pics and video should be up sometime this week.
I would like to see it go to a good home regardless. Thanks guys
Justin

LOL I will. I have one pic saved on my computer, but my other computer with ALL my pics crashed. The weather has been crappy here but as soon as it clears up I'm going to get video of everything that way the seller knows what he/she is buying.
