Don't get me wrong. It's not that it isn't a great car but I'd like to move onto other projects.
Anyways, without further ado.
I bought the car off dark-one last year around April.
His for sale thread was here: http://www.norotors.com/index.php?topic=7412.0
When I bought the car last year, it came with a turbo'ed Ls6.
Despite dark-one's "guarantee", anything and everything that went wrong with the car, did. Bottom line was that the car was NOT how he described it to be at all.
You can see my build thread for a longer explanation here: http://www.norotors.com/index.php?topic=11637.0
Long story short, I ended up almost replacing everything with brand new parts. It was a HUGE and lengthy ordeal for me but when it was all said and done, was actually quite satisfying. That and it provided an opportunity to work out all the kinks.

The Bad:
- The exterior could use some loving. Paint is fading after 20 years. Also, front driver side fender needs some repair work done to it (car bottomed out before).
- No A/C - I have all the parts for it but no idea how to run the lines.
- Radio doesn't work. Not that you can hear anything anyways cause the car is so loud.
The car is fully dialed in to be capable both on the street and the track. I've put about a 1000 miles (all street cause I have never even been to the track) on the build since it was completed 3 months ago.
The car was recently tuned by Rick @ Synergy Motorsports in fremont and made about 412 - 430 hp. The engine is fully built though and is capable of handling turbo or a much more aggressive cam set up if you desire.
Title is clean and in hand. Registration was done back in March, 2013 so it's still pretty fresh.
I'm asking 28k obo or 25k without the seats.

No thanks. I'm actually trying to get into something where I wouldn't have to worry about passing smog.
lol I'm going to have to pass on the c5 corvette. Thanks for the offer though.
