      Thanks for the kind words guy's..... The Only reason for selling is to start a new project otherwise I wouldn't even think about it..... The money, time, effort in this car is far north than what I'm asking, someone will get one hell of a car for the money! This car has finished 30th or so out of the last several ASCS pro-touring events which had 80+ cars entered. The driver is holding it back! LOL

      Good luck with the sale on this!
      I've looked at your car over and over in the past, following the build, etc. because I had a GN for a brief time when I was younger and have always wanted to get one back in my hands, and yours is definitely the way I'd want to build it.
      If I didn't have a '70 SS/RS Camaro with all the same Detroit Speed goodies you have in the garage, I'd be beating down your door! I just don't have room for both!
      I know projects come and go, and I'm sure your ready to move on, but whoever gets it from you is LUCKY!
      All the best!
