-could use a good tune
this car would be great for somebody looking to make a mean street/strip car, or just a solid weekend warrior with some decent power. I am selling because I have been thinking of getting into a Jeep for the past 6 months and I am finally going to pull the trigger.
if you are seriously interested, let me know and i can get specific pictures for you

sorry about that.
i believe it's .574/.588 lift.
also forgot to mention that the valvesprings and valve seals were replaced 5k miles ago, and the water pump was replaced 4k miles ago.

here you can see the cracked dash, i'm not sure what caused this but i'm guessing the AZ summer time heat . i have grown to get used to it but if it bothers you, it would either need a dash out of a donor car, or a dash mat.
you can also see the tear in the drivers seat, this is the only flaw in the upholstery, besides the headliner which i have out of the car, just needs to be recovered and put back in.
also pictured is the infamous seat belt guide that broke, nothing major but i haven't had time to replace it and figured i'd get a pic of it.

the car cleans up nice and definitely gets the attention of others, looks and sound wise. it's not perfect, but i'm hoping it will go to a good home that can make it perfect.
shoot me an offer, i'm all ears

You wouldn't happen to live in the area of Surprise would you? I could have sworn I saw a car exactly like yours driving a half mile down the road from the Chevy dealership up there.
