The car is immaculate and has a very rich history behind it, not to mention a legendary status in the upstate area.

Good luck with the sale Shawn, can’t believe 97vr4 sold his that quick, and you still have yours.

Sorry, I thought I put that in.

About $16K. It has about $25K or so in mods but they are boltons… just expensive ones unfortunately.

Lost to you when the car had a MBC and an intake ($35 in mods) but man I got beat bad. That was basically the only loss that car has. I lost a Mustang last year when the alternator failed. I would have bet money that car went 10s on that run. My neck was sore for the weekend on the launch.

Thanks. I appreciate that. This car was/is treated like gold. BTW, you are the last person to be in the car on race gas or to be driven past 16PSI. How long ago was that too? I drive the car once every month or so to the store just to drive it. I just want a house and this has to go.
