I think it’s time for a new project (just not sure what yet) so I am putting my car on Lateral-G and Pro Touring to see if there are any potential buyers…I don’t need to sell the car, so if the price doesn’t happen then I will keep it and enjoy it! If I don't get much response, I will put it on Ebay and see what happens. Most of us here know what it takes to build these cars so I’m hoping two sites that helped make the car what it is will also help sell it!

This car has been Professionally built by the outstanding crew at G-Force Design Concepts, a company that most of us are familiar with. I can not stress how much time and care Jason and his team have put into this car and I would not hesitate to put it up against the best built cars in the business. I would drive this car across the country without even hesitating and get nearly 25mpg doing it! (Did I mention the Cruise Control)! The tune is spot on and was done by the gifted hands of Ed Hutchins at Virginia Speed.

What’s wrong with the car you ask? Well, very little. I did not paint the car when we had it apart because I didn’t want the paint jail, and it was already pretty darn good. I would safely say the paint and body are an 8.5 to 9 out of a 10. The Panels are all very good and the paint does have some chips here and there, but it is a very good street paint job, and I get compliments on the paint often. That’s really about it, everything else works the way it should.

I have over 65,000 in parts and that’s after the 30,000 I spent for the Original car over 4 years ago. I don’t know exactly how much I have in the car (didn‘t think I would ever sell it), but I know its well over 130,000. To replicate this car today would easily cost you more and take a year or more to complete. Most of the receipts are on file a G-Force Designs.

I drive the car every chance I get and can tell you it is easy to drive and with nearly 650hp it will haul ass if you choose and out handle a new Corvette with no problem!

Feel free to contact me any time at on my cell at 703-371-1109 or call G-Force for questions at 717-263-1994 if I can’t be reached (I’m a pilot for a living so if it goes to voice mail, I’ll get back to you as soon as I can).

Asking 85,000.00

I am perfectly aware of the state of the economy and such, but this is a fair price and once again I DO NOT HAVE to sell the car, so don‘t look for the deal of a lifetime with this one. I will happily talk to any serious buyers, and thanks again to everyone here that helped me over the years with this project.

Thanks,

Matt Gober

O.K., here's a bump...

I'll drop the price to 85,000.00

I'm planning on Ebay in the next month or two for more exposure. If anyone has a VERY clean stock base '69 coupe for trade I will consider it!

Thanks,

Matt

Sorry for the late reply...the knob is a '04 Cobra and the boot I think is from Lokar, but it's been awhile and I'm not sure.

Matt, your car looks awesome. I was wondering if you have sold it yet. I am looking for a car that is ready to drive and have some fun with. I am currently selling my two cars and have recieved a deposit on my 69 camaro. The guy that is buying it has just told me he wants to buy my 62 vette. So if this all comes together and you have your car still I would like to fly out to see you and your car. Please let me know if the car is still available. I will keep you posted. Thanks Rick

We had discussed his wanting a '69 Drop top -- I sent him a link to your post here - and after he drove it - called me and said he was going to make it his!!

Greg,

Thanks to you I have sold my car to your friend Marty and can say without a doubt it is going to not only a great home, but a great guy who will enjoy the car with his family for years to come. Seeing Marty drive away today with my baby(wife called it the beast) was bitter sweet, but as they say with every door that shuts another opens.

Thanks again Greg for your input and recommendation. This is a perfect example of how great the people are here at Lateral-G and at Pro Touring.

Thanks again to everyone who showed any interest and support!

CAR IS SOLD!!!!
