Things have changed, for the better, now get to keep and finish my dream car

dvandentop

damn raam best of luck in the parts sales! your car was going to be a beast

sucky to hear about the car situation also i hope it all gets straightened out

0RAAMaudio

Thanks, I have been patient, understanding, etc, and it seems I should of been a bit more assertive.

I am working with the guys I bought the car from to see if we can figure out an answer on the tittle.


---------

As for the car, I plan to finish it to a lower level which is a huge amount of work though my heart is broken about it now, it was to be the one all out car of my life and now I just do not know if I will ever have the chance again.

---------

I could probably figure out a way to keep the car and all the parts but I want to ensure my kids are properly supported through school no matter what happens to the economy. Two just about to enroll in good schools and one is going back, the one that I could never afford to help much before, their educations are worth far more to me than any car could ever be. I just did not expect them to all go at the same time but I am dang glad they are going

Sorry to hear that you're having to sell, but man - three kids in college is a great (if expensive!) accomplishment. It sounds like you've gotten through the worst of the hidden costs, and I'm a firm believer in the fact that the economy will turn back around (and my decimated portfolio with it)! So, I expect this is a delay for you, but very likely not the end of this dream.

Get the car together enough that you can take it to the track and enjoy it, and when the next bubble builds, put all the good parts back on!! Hang in there, man! - and good luck with the sale!

Thanks, sorry to blabber on so but I guess you understand the emotions involved building your dream car and having it yanked away and also know the importance of taking care of your kids.

Good luck, I have dealt with Rick before, very honest seller.

Thanks guys, I have edited my posts, have my emotions more in check now though I have confirmed it will be nearly impossible to get the tittle. It would take forever and I would have to post a huge bond, far more than I owe on the car.

Life goes on, been through much worse than this and I always make out in the end, good to have been born with a glass half full type attitude

TTT, most of these parts do not come up for sale, are well worn, cannot ever get these prices anywhere, etc..........

If you are building a race car, upgrading one or a hot street car, time to grab the deals while you can

Thanks

Will the C6 RPM tranny & diff fit into a C5?

0RAAMaudio

Sorry for the delay, my car is a C5 that I was putting the C6 WC body on so yes, it will fit just fine

Rick

0RAAMaudio

WC body is on hold

If it sells I may not sell anything else

Rick

UPDATE, I wish I did not have to do this and in many ways I do not but my priorities in life have changed dramatically.

(like building a new house, shop, on resort priced(was until recently property and paying it off in 4-5 years so I can actually retire someday, etc)

Rick

Dave Deerson

So is the WC body still for sale or has someone made an offer on it?

0RAAMaudio

Brakes sold, all other parts available and buying land, I need cash but please make decent offers

May be intersted in the moton's are the eibach springs on them? meaning your using them as coil overs? if so do you know what the spring rates are?

0RAAMaudio

Thanks Randy, very much appreciated


--------------
Yes, these are coilovers, I have to call Pfadt to get the spring rates as left them there some time ago and forgot to ever go get them! I was going to stiffen the rates a bit as was informed I could as their valving would allow it.

I will need some leafs, cheaper coilovers, used parts, etc so I have something to put on the car unless I just make up some solid bits to roll it around on but may take something in trade if CHEAP

-------------

I am going to sell my 28' Featherlite Toyhauler, virtually brand new, list was $48k, asking $24k and a couple of other cars, etc so I can focus on building the new place the way I want it. I have a 4 year plan to pay it off and be completely dept free and able to retire whenever I want then

Thanks
Rick
