This car is my baby!! Only reason I am selling her is because I am leaving the state and cannot take the car with me. It took me 9 months to order all the correct parts and a year and a half to finish the build. I built this car with a friend of mine who is a certified mechanic. We built it in his garage. I put a lot of long days and late nights into this car. I have a box full of receipts if needed. If interested and need more info just call me at 708-828-5243. Steve. I have more photos. U can also always set an appointment to see the vehicle. This car is where I wanted to get her. She is at her best. Whoever gets it will be happy. Thanks.
