Bring this back up to the top. Had a life changing event, so I've decided to sell the car.

I've added the following parts since the original ad was posted.

Changed the wheels to Formula 43 S6 wheel, grey centers/polished outer. 18x8.5" front, 18x9 rear.

Changed out the front brake calipers to Wilwood Aero6 calipers, with BP-10 pads.

Newly installed Recaro Specialist S seats.

I competed the car in USCA Texas event this past March, and did the Power Tour this last June. The car did great without any issues.

There are some minor issues:
-Tank will be empty, eventhough the guage shows 1/4 tank. Learned the hard way when we ran out of gas while on Power Tours.
-Headers are hanging a bit low.
-The paint is bubling on the driver side sail panel meets the quarter. This showed up a week after the car was painted (2009). I was going to bring the car back to the paint shop, but the shop burned down. My blessing I guess.

Some recent pictures.

Thanks Scott. I really want to keep the car, but at the moment I'd rather have the cash on hand.

Tu, I hope everything is ok.

For potential buyers, Tu is an awesome guy to do business with. I can vouch for his integrity based on a prior sale. He does not sugar coat anything in order to get a sale.

Best of luck on getting this sold.

Thank you Jason for the kind words. Just went thru some personal issues, and I'm ready to move on to other things.

Bump for the day.

Tu, I hope you are doing great and you get your Bird sold. It's a sweet car and was a lot of fun to watch it run earlier this year at TMS.

Weekly bump.

Entertaining reasonable/serious offers.

[RLJ676]

Seems like a lot of car for the money, good luck!

How'd you setup the rear parking brake, have the same brakes on my 72 and need to figure out the parking brake. (Can PM if you don't want to clutter here haha, thanks!)

Bump

[rickpaw]

Bump. No reasonable offers refused.

Tu, have you tried eBay?

Hi Jason, it's not on ebay at the moment (I'm going to try the forums/craigslist ads first). If it does not sell by end of the year, I'll keep it for good. Have some ideas for version 2 (or maybe it's version 3 already).
