Going to try and put this out there again....bought a new house and I need to sell my car and pay off some bills and repairs that the new house needs

This was a project that I worked on all last Winter. The car started out as a 1995 V6 automatic that now has all the mechanicals of a 1999 Camaro Z28 SS (that I purchased as a donor). When the car was down to a bare shell I sanded and undercoated the floor pan. I also sanded primed and painted the engine bay. As it sits right now the suspension (stock), K-member, fuel lines, brake lines, fuel tank, engine, transmission, aluminum driveshaft and rear end are all from the donor Z28. Since the intention was to build a fun street/strip car I did a few mods. All the mods were done to keep the car looking as stock as possible.

To make things clearer, here is a list of the parts in the car.
The parts listed here came to $7,500.00

Professional alignment

Car was tuned and dyno'd at Beyond Redline in Green Bay and made 361 RWHP.

UPDATE: This Fall I ran it with some cooler air and it ran 11.65 @ 115 MPH!

Runs and drives really well! As it's a street strip car, there's no heat, AC or radio (saves weight though)!! I never installed a water temp gauge or fuel level gauge (I have them if someone wanted them - I had Auto Meter do the ohm conversion so it will read correctly).

Interior is in good shape and I spent a weekend polishing to get the paint to come out as good as I could. It turned out pretty well, but the front bumper clear coat is peeling.

Parts alone is a lot more than I'm asking and with what I initially paid for the car plus the cost of the donor car and misc. things not listed, I won't take less. Clean title.

Thanks,
Marc

**UPDATE**
Had the car listed for a long time and have had no real interest.
Decided to keep it and put a rear end in it.
