I'm selling because I'm moving out of state and have too many projects stored here and can't take them all with me : (

just add paint, ome wheels/tires and a little interior work and you have a real nice ride at a fraction of the cost to start from scratch

I will do my best to get someone there to assist with transferring the vehicle to the buyer ora shipping company butif I can't Imay need a couple of weeks to take time off work to travel thereto dothis myself.
Pickup/shipping is the responsibility of the buyer but I will do my best to assist where possible.

Have had a few questions about the car so here's some more details to hopefully clarify some things:
The car runs and drives and basically is mechanically sound and mainly needs cosmetics at this point.
The engine starts easily even when cold, uns strong and makes plenty of power for a daily driver street/strip car. The motor is stock and unopened from GM as far as I know. The pcm has the stock tune for this motor so it runs very well and has great throttle response and drivability. There's always more power to be had by having the pcm dynotuned but I wanted to keep things simple while I got it up and running.
The transmission and rear differential have very low miles (probably a few thousand if that) and the trans shifts nice, mooth but quick at part throttle and nice and firm when you give it some gas... it'll chirp the tires on the 1-2 shift :) .
Tracks nice and straight, rakes work well, ice firm pedal and good stopping power.
The tires are not roadworthy and need to be replaced but are fine for moving it around and transport. The wheels/tires that I was running on it got used on another project of mine. I considered about putting new wheels/tires on it but it really depends on what the new owners intended use will be as well as their personal preference so I’ll leave that for them to do.
Does not have heat, /c. I was planning on running a vintage air underdash unit but did not make it that far.
What does the car need? I'll rattle off what I can think of and am sure I will miss a few things here and there:
heating, /c system, heels/tires, eat upholstery, oor panels reupholstered or replaced, eadliner sail panels need recovered and installed,some body filler fixed on the hood and roof, ront fender/hood alighment, rimer, locking, aint, urn signal cam needs fixed (turn signals work last I checkedjust not self cancelling). Like I said I'm sure there's other things I'm missing.
Overall a very solid car compared to a lot of stuff out there.
Here’s a few pics of what I was running just to give an idea of its potential with a nice wheel/tire combo (wheels are 17x8 centerlines with nitto 555 tires 245/45/17 front and 255/50/17 rear, ot included just shown for reference):
