There shouldn’t be an issue at all, I’m sure you’ll want to adjust the shift points and converter lockup in the trans programming to suit your needs though. Hell, with my cage you’ll be one of the only cars that’s actually safe to run the speeds it will do at those events.... (if you can’t tell I loath the lack of safety standards at those events given the speed)

Sorry I've been absent for a while, and haven't returned PM's. My father is very sick and has been hospitalized so my focus has been elsewhere. The car is still for sale....feel free to text with questions.

I've grown tired of the F/S process and useless trade offers. As such I will be lowering the price to my rock bottom price. At this amount there is zero room for negotiations, the price is the price take it or leave it.
FINAL PRICE DROP - $45K

The only reason this car hasn't sold is because it is going to be a niche market; someone essentially looking for a streetable race car, and because of the age they aren't going to have too many finance options. Not a ton of people have 50k laying around to make a toy purchase. That is seriously the only reason it hasn't sold - this car is an insane value for the money, especially if it is turn key sorted. Good luck with the sale man.

It kills me to sell it, but it just comes down to the fact that I simply don't use it....basically ever. My GF lives in NYC now so my off weekends are spend traveling back and forth (4.5 hours each way) so the racing opportunities are slim and none. I work every other weekend as well with my LEO schedule so I only have so much time available in the first place. Its time to start checking some cars off the "stuff I want to own" list...starting with an R8 or a GenV Viper. So, to get to those, unfortunately the vette has to find a new home. I honestly can't wait to see the new owner's face when it finally does change hands, and maybe more so....to see the post backing up everything I've said. Not going to lie....getting trolled on on various sites by ignorant a-holes does take its toll.

I totally agree with you, but my location also hurts it a lot. No one ever sees it, but there's nothing I can do about that. As far as bang for the buck, I'd put money that this is the best deal on the market right now of any kind. At the 45K you're paying for the shortblock and the trans/rear swap....literally the entire rest of the car is a freebee. This is as turn key of a combo as there is. Not only is it sorted with all the bugs worked out, but its all fresh too right down to the brake pads and tires. Hell, I even steam-cleaned the interior last night. I have a semi-pro level detail setup so all my stuff looks brand new all the time.

The market for exceptional builds is disappointing for sure. Everyone wants a bad *** car until it comes time to put the money in that is required to build a bad *** car, and they see the reality of it. I have a high 7 second capable twin turbo Cobra, and there has to be 80+ grand in that car. I've got probably 5 grand in AN fittings. This is not a cheap hobby, and the things you don't account for when taking on a build like this will blow your mind with how much it all adds up. This car is a literal steal for this money, and if I didn't already have 2 turbo Cobras (the other a low 10 second pump gas daily driver capable street car) I'd buy this thing on principle alone, but I'm already taxing my wife's VERY lenient patience haha...
Don't sell yourself short on this car. Stick firm to the money you are asking because it is well worth it, and anyone who is a serious enough buyer and not just a **** talker on the internet will recognize it as such as well. It is an awesome build.

The reserve was close to being met so I put it back up for another round.
