Hey Norval, Sorry to see your selling your Vette...this must be one of the most 'sorted' cars out there. Good luck with the sale and a lil bump for one hell of a technologically advanced machine out there...

Any one want to buy a small child or a kidney or something?

I am just tired of working on it. I finished all I could think of last winter and had absolutely nothing to do this past winter.
My interests lie in horses.
I forgot it has a 10 or 12 point roll cage.

Is $35k Canada dollars or American? What are the dyno #s? Sounds like a cruiser until you mentioned the rollbars. I imagine they add joy to get in and out off the car and moving about. Is the seat fixed position?

The side bar at shoulder height swings out for easy getting in or out. The lower one is fixed but no problem. The roll cage is so well fit in the car that it is invisible from outside. It is no problem getting in or out. The 4 point harnesses are more of a pain doing up. The car is a great cruiser but could be quickley rejetted and timed for drag racing.
Dollar wise the american and canadian or on par anyway so it doesn't matter.

Oh man. Here's a bump to ya.
I idolized this car while building mine.
Sad to see it go but I know there will be another.
Your probably barely making back your investment into it at 35k, the motor alone has got to be over 10-15k.
What a beast, luv this car. Good luck!

I put $20,000 in the motor alone. I am not interested in trying to make money. I just want it gone and move on. I need the floor space.

Seriously, someone could buy this car and duplicate all the custom parts on it and make a fortune.
Think about it...
custom elongated spindles
custom tie rods
no bump steer
frame strengthening & lightening tricks
kick ass motor
kick ass wiring with more relays then cylinders
coilovers on all sides before any manufacturer ever even thought about it
The very first hydroboost in a vette
The very first jeep box in a vette
Removable rollcage
The list goes on...
