-enjoying it!

I changed the first post to get rid of the joke, I will be putting it up on ebay so the highest offer.

If anyone has questions feel free to ask, however I won't have pics for a few weeks because I dont have my digi camera. You can look at my sig to see the general condition of the body.

I hate to do it but I' not going to sell it in the conventional manner. Ive been contacted by a dozen or so people looking for a steal ($10-20k) who spend more time trying to convince me I have a peice of **** car that isnt worth a dime then anything else. (despite none of them ever seeing more than the 2 year old pics on my sig)


I apologise for the tone but I just got in a real nice fight over the phone with one prick telling me im dreaming to think my car is worth more than $20k so please excuse the hostility. :willy:

seeing your so funny, what the hell will the reserve be when it goes to ebay, i am sure your smart enough to put a reserve on it??? last i checked this is lateral-g and things are usually listed with a price, on top of that a few have asked for a price, but i guess it is a mystery

Well as my luck would have it I am now in an immediate need of money not to mention in 3 weeks will have no place for it to stay so i must sell it as is, I hope to get over $30k for it as I have well over 40 invested not to mention thousands of hours of labor.

If anyone is seriously interested please pm me with any questions. however please no low balling me, Im sure I can part it out for a very good ammount of money, which i very well may end up doing....

Brian, in all honesty you REALLY REALLY need some updated pics of the car with all the new work done. People aren't going to pay anything based on some old pics you have. They'll want to see the finished product and the level of work to see what it's worth.

Sorry to be offensive, but I wouldn't pay unless I knew what I was looking at. I'm sure you can borrow a digital camera and upload some pics to photobucket or something pretty easy.

Just my $0.02

ilovefirstgens,

Hey dude I checked out your car and it doesnt seem to have the things you are saying it does. I understand you dont have a camera but if I told you I was selling a ZO6 with a pic of an 86 vette would you buy?

As I already said....

Thus all the hullabaloo about pics, the newest ones there are about a year old however i Barrowed a friends digital camera and will have the posted on the first post a few mins after I am done with this post.
