Buyer Pays all taxes and delivery fees

I would recommend inspecting the car in person prior to auction end -All are sales final.

No warranty, iether expressed or implied. This is a high performance car! Test Drives for serious bidders only, refundable deposit of $1,000 is required to test drive the vehicle as this is a High Performance car and I don't want to be on the hook to get you out of a ditch!

Title will be signed and overnighted as soon as payment clears. Will accept any secure payment method to include in-person.

This is not some crappy crate motor, his is built to spec by/with Butler Performance Pontiac, he same builders that power "Big Chief" from street outlaws! This is a $20,000 motor, ot some basic stroker motor.

This car runs, rives and stops. It is street legal. It has needs, ut it is solid. It runs at 176-185 deg all day long (180 thermostat). Low Ride, herefore speed bumps are a challenge for the oilpan/trans-pan. This car is an absolute monster. It will spin street tires at 80 mph, ev to 6,000 instantly and pull through quarter mile all day. Street manners are challenging for a novice, t will run fine on premium pump gas in current tune.

This is a street legal (barely) race car. It is designed to move. Built to be as strong as possible for years of street and strip fun. Every item OVERBUILT. Motor has maybe 500 miles on it since build, ith chasis dyno tuning and 4 1/4 mile passes on street tires (just pedaling it to let it breathe)

** FUEL INJECTED FOR EASE OF OPERATION**

No rust visible rust, oild metal car

4-wheel disc brakes (vented/slotted/crossdrilled fronts) (vented rear)

This car is not perfect, t will need someone to pay it attention. Every part I have added or system has utilized the absolute best parts availible. No corners were cut, owever the 2006 refreshing from the previous owner had left some unfinished cosmetic business.
