the reason there haven't been anymore updates is because i'm having motor mount issues. need to get C5 mounts on there. the GTO mounts don't quite work. haha

Think that thru carefully. Can you get fuel away from home?

Yes. There are a handful of stations around here and when I go back to Illinois, they are common

Sorry I haven't updated in a couple years lol. Car is almost done! Korea and Afghanistan kinda got in the way of my productivity. Only big change to the setup is ~~a Holley EFI Dominator instead of the AEM kit~~ (never bought this either)

Never left. Hang out in PR&C a lot. Just took a break for a couple of years. I have a V-10 that has been filling my need lately.

Afghanistan has, yet again, gotten in the way of me finishing this car. I have lost interest in it. Anyone wanna buy a TT FRC Project? I'll have to double check, but I am pretty sure the only thing left to buy is a set of injectors (and an ECU if you wanna run aftermarket).

So….I’ve given up on this project. It hasn’t been touched in years.

I’m planning on throwing it on Craigslist/eBay and on here.

I have no idea what a fair asking price would be. Can any of you give me an idea?

WOW! Flashback to 2009! Thank you for sharing!

Some asshat stole that trophy out of my barracks room a week later. I never saw it again.

I want to sell it. Just need to figure out an appropriate price range.

Probably need updated pictures. It’s currently sitting in my buddy’s shop in the suburbs of Chicago.

Damn it. Now that she is in front of me again, I don’t want to sell her. Guess I have to finish her.

HOLY CRAP, Batman!!
What a saga! Keep at it... at least Afghanistan won't get in your way again. I closed down Bargam two years ago (right before that whole bit went crazy).
