New ujoints driveshaft and half shafts

Rear:
Recently rebuilt dana 44 with 3.73 rears

ZR-1 Wheels 275 fronts, 315 rear
Extra set of 17x12 ZR-1s with BFG drag radials

Electronics

The bad:

Removed HVAC system for ease of engine access. I have all of the parts
Not emissions friendly
Seats could stand a re-dye job
Could use bushings
Needs new soft top. It works to keep rain out but that's it. It's never up in the summer anyway

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

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.

ttt you go

Unreal that you just completed this and now things have taken a turn for the worse. I hope things get better for you.

I agree somebody must be able to save this for you. It is a real shame to see this happen, and to lose all the money out right too.

GOOD LUCK, this would be an awesome car to own, a test drive will sell it for sure.

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!

And that 13K mark is spot on if not shy by a grand or two. I was planning a similar build in the spring.

Good luck.

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

ok, ok bump for you!
