Whats your opinion of the urethane bushings on the street?
Was the car street tuned?

DDanno

As far as Urethane bushings on the street, you Might feel a little more of the road as Urethane will transfer slightly more vibrations as opposed to straight rubber, but i doubt most will feel any difference. Shocks will make more of a difference than just the bushings. Yes if you are driving the car every day you will have to grease the bushings every once in a while when and if they squeak. Urethane is more compliant than Delrin that a lot of guys are going to. That is just one step down from Steel and not as compliant as the Urethane. Also if you really wanted to back to rubber bushings, it could be done.
On the tune. The idle is slightly up from a total stock car, Otherwise you will not have any trouble with this car on the street. pulls away from stop just like a stocker, does not buck or jump. Is very docile on the street, does not heat. Could easily be a parade car. Yes the car was street tuned.

A resto-mod parade car? Sounds awesome. Nice car. GLWS.

Added a couple of pictures showing a slightly smaller rear spoiler. second and fourth. Some have commented that the rear spoiler is to big. The smaller one also has been painted to match the blue on the front and carbon on the back. Can install which ever one the buyer likes.

I don't get it ,with labor and parts $30/40 to build this C-5 .. Can't sell it but people will spend this much to build one just like it ..

DDanno

Guys sorry for late reply's. Have been out of town any off the web for a while.
Radar502 Agree 100% with you Took a lot to build, If I could just get my health back I would even think of selling. Have a inner ear problem.
Once you make a commitment to any of the auction company's they take full control of the car, Have to send them title (unsigned) so you don't sell it before the auction. Also charge a very steep fee if you do not present the vehicle at the auction.
Sooo it is going to Auction as noted above, Friday Morning lot F25 with a fare reserve.

If it does not meet reserve. I will have to wait a month before I can resume trying to sell.

Since this car has gone to auction, I am closing this thread for now. When you are ready to relist the car here on the forum, let me know and I can either reopen this thread or you can just repost your FS ad. Good luck.
