Vehicle Detail

I must be crazy, but this is a NO RESERVE AUCTION! I have 100% POSITIVE feedback and have been on here since 1995! Oh where, oh where, to begin? I purchased this car a 18 months ago and have not had a chance to enjoy it. What I HAVE done is load more money into it for hopes of a day to drive it around. I have taken ONE drive in it, yes one.. I work 7 days a week and that doesn't seem to be ending anytime soon. So Mr Obama needs the $ for my 2012 taxes. Therefore, I have to sell this amazing piece of machinery. She is 95% finished and I have ALL that is needed to finish her. She is almost Barrett-Jackson ready, I feel she could fetch between 50K-75K at Barrett Jackson. I bought this car with MOST work already done to it. This car has been driven 6 miles, yes, 6..since completion to this point. And let me tell you, she will HAUL ASS like you have NEVER seen. She is ready to be driven now, all thats missing is a quick install of the NEW INTERIOR and ULTIMATE Decal Kit and re-mounting the hood scoop/carb cover. There is over $50,000 in this car, and it shows. Listed, are just SOME of the things she has had done to her.....She is probably pushing over 600 horses now! 1.She started life as a Y84 Automatic, now she is just MEAN, CLEAN AND NASTY. THE ORIGINAL ENGINE WILL COME WITH THE CAR in addition to the current installed already engine, a (get ready) Pontiac 400, 461cubic inch. She has been balanced and bored 030 over, with Stroker. 2.Edelbrock Polished and Ported headers by Richard Petty Enterprises ( I know , awesome!! ) 3.MSD Ignition 4.COMPETITION Cam 5. Millidon Deep Sump Oil Pan 6.Aluminum SPAL USA Dual Fan Radiator 7.DEMON Carbeurator 8.Brand New (BLACK) Interior Kit (comes with the car) 9.$2600 MARCH Pulley System 10.$2700 New Air Conditioning system 11.$9,000 Paint job 12.HOOKER Super Comp Headers 13.ARP Bolts THROUGHOUT 14.SCAT Internals 15.Rear Mini-tubs installed. Still retain use of back seats 16.VOSSEN 19" Wheels, wrapped in Hankook tires. You also get the old snowflakes and tires that were original 17.BRAND NEW Ultimate decal kit (not installed) 18.All original interior/engine parts, undercarriage, hood scoop (painted), comes WITH the car with purchase. 19.Comes with custom kick panels (not installed) with Focal Polyglass 165 Component Set for your tunes, reeeediculous component set 20.Oddysey 12V Battery 21.Hotchkis Springs/suspension/gas charged shock sets. 22.FLOWMASTER exhaust system 23.Overhaul Drive Shaft 24.BAER Brake system, with new parking brake,cables, etc.. 25.Replaced master cylinder 26.New Starter and Flywheel (to make the smooth change from being an Auto car to a Manual) 27. More More More, literally, goes on and on... As you can see, only the BEST was used in every aspect of this car. It has been an expensive undertaking to get this close to finishing (only thing left is decals and interior, BOTH of which are INCLUDED but Mr Obama needs the money.I sadly, dont know this car as well as the previous owner since he did the bolt off restoration on it, but he is nice enough to answer any questions you may have. I will call him if you have any concerns or questions about the car. My plan was to drive it, have some fun, then take it to Barrett-Jackson. As you can see this is a SHOW QUALITY CAR if there ever was one, but it could also EAT EVERYONE'S LUNCH at the dragstrip. Like I said, I have driven it and it is just WAAAYY too much car for me. I'm sure some of you can handle her better than I can.There is so much more I am leaving out, but I have stacks upon stacks of receipts, which will all go to the new owner. Please see all pictures, as there will be many. If you have any questions, feel free to message me. The previous owner before me knows ALOT more about this car (I'm a Ford Broncoman) and would be willing to answer any questions you may have.As always, car will be sold as-is. I cannot deliver the car to you, but will help in arranging transport if need be. You will also need some "extra space" for the original components from the car and the original engine. Comes with clear title. -Stewart Roberts M.D. On Sep-17-12 at 15:06:25 PDT, seller added the following information: Update: I forgot to add, there is over $20,000 just in the engine!On Sep-20-12 at 11:41:42 PDT, seller added the following information: Just got some more info from the original builder of her.... here it is, .... engine is a 400 bored .030 with ross forged racing pistons.compression ratio is 11 to 1.eagle stroker crank with h beam rods.total engine displacement is 461 cu in.All internals balancedwith a romac sfi approved harmonic balancer.block was shaved .020.Competition cams hydraulic cam. i think lift is 572 duration is 320 you have the cam card specs.milodon hi volume oil pump with 7 qt pan.edelbrock ported and polished heads.comp cams valve springs to match cam.cranecams chrome moly pushrods.screw in studs and guideplates.scorpion aluminum roller rockers.intake ported to match heads.butler valve covers.golden shamrock racing and machine shop in winston-salem n.c. did all machine work on block. guy from petty enterprises did all head work.MIGHTY DEMON 750 carb.MSD pro billet dist.MSD 6al box.march billet pulley set up.chrome hi volume water pump.aluminumac compressor chromepower steering pump.everything except block either chrome,polished alum,or billet.all earls braidedlines and fittings.
