Cool nostalgic pro street look but very streetable and weighs under 2300 pounds! It’s a bit dirty in the pictures as I haven’t really had the time to enjoy it the past couple months. Never taken to the strip, only cruise nights and some shows. Would need a roll cage if used primarily for racing. Some paint blems, chips, scrapes and a few cracks from road usage. Small crack on lower left headlight case. Needs a gas gauge (have to use dipstick) and there's no speedo cable hooked up. Also needs a new latch on left side of the rear hatch. Currently, the exhaust goes straight out through the collectors/reducers which might be too loud for the street but there is also a full custom flowmaster exhaust that sounds awesome which is included.

Video to show engine sound and ease of starting:YouTube (Note: had just installed new pro billet MSD distributor and timing / idle were a bit high)

Not for the faint of heart or those who avoid drawing attention. I've never taken it on the street without someone taking a pic or shooting a thumbs up. Even gotten praise from 'jdm' purists on more than one occasion. Selling at a very reasonable reserve as I need to pay off a debt and could use the extra space. This is a great chance to own a well sorted, affordable hot rod or an excellent platform for a more serious race car build. Current reg and clean open CO title in my name. Deposit due within 48 hours and full payment due one week from deposit. Buyer is responsible for shipping fees. Feel free to call or text with any questions at (303) 807-7379. Thanks for lookin!
