I hate to see this car go, ut I don’t have the time and money to maintain it. I purchased this right after I returned from my military tour in Iraq, nd had a lot of fun with it.I would much rather see it in the hands of someone that can give it the attention it deserves!”NOTE:I'm listing this for my son. I will pass all questions on to him. The vehicle is located in St. Charles, L - if you would like to see it in person.Reminder: This is a contractual agreement. Your $500 deposit is non-refundable. This is NOT an opportunity for the winner to come look at the vehicle, nd then decide if he really wants it or not. NO JOKE! I had that happen before. This guy won my auction for a street rod, nd flew out from the West Coast to look at it, nd then realized that it would be too expensive to ship back home.
