There's more I am sure but I am tired of typing. The engine has at most 20hrs. Maryland Performance Center near Frederick, MD did all of the engine work. Great bunch of guys and very meticulous. I have more specifics for those interested. This is a driver, not a show car. I have recent receipts for over 17K. I have the original window sticker. Price is $10,800 A few pics below. I have many more...
...and please keep negative comments to yourself. This is hard enough
Hey neighbor. Sorry to hear about your circumstance, been there done that. Maybe you can sell it to a buddy for $1 and then 'buy' it back after the divorce. Good luck man!
No negative comments. Bump for a beautiful Vette. Sorry for you loss.
--MH
I hope you're not saying my comments are negative because they are not. I've been in his situation. I was just suggesting a way for him to keep his beautiful car and giving him a bump at the same time.
WOW, after all you've been through with this car I really hate to see you sell it. Someone is going to get a monster, just wish I had room in the garage.
Best of luck with the sale, and most of all best of luck in life.
-Mike

this isn't the type of car that an owner typically sells. this is the type of car that the owner plans to be barried in! I mean a truely "no expense spared" build! incredible combination of parts!
Honestly, I'd "sell" it to a friend, transfer ownership... have the friend store it, and once the divorse is settled, re-purchase...
unless, of course, the soon-to-be X wants to bust your B@LLS about it...
truely sorry to hear about this, incredible beast!
if someone is serious about replicating this build you might as well add up ALL the costs, not to mention the sh!t that dime and nickles you to death...
steps that follow:
take list and toss it out the window
take out check book
make check payable for asking amount to jerkyboy
drive home with a car that ALREADY has everything you want in a c4 and enjoy!
long-block... thousands of $$$$
late nights without sleep.... hundreds of $$$$
the smile on your face when you floor jerkyboys 434ci small-block? PRICELESS! lol
