Long story, but the fact that I haven't been on this forum for over 3 years kinda says it all. My project hasn't even been looked at since then - so I thought I'd feel out this soft market and maybe pass it onto someone who will work on it.
If nothing else, it's a hell of a pile of custom-built parts. The round tube chassis and suspension are all from scratch - even the uprights. Runs a dry-sumped 383 chevy and 5 speed richmond (doug nash) box. Corvette rear with custom multi-link IRS.

The aim was always to get a car to beat my old GT40 replica - so 170mph+, 1g corners, under 2000lbs.
So, what's an unfinished project like this worth these days? Trust me, I'm not expecting a lot of interest, but I figured I'd ask here first where at least you guys understand what I was doing..
