This isn't exactly a pro-touring car, but I am seeing if anyone has some interest. Car is located in Tuscaloosa, AL.

Bumping this back up with a new price and some things adjusted.

The dogring T56 is still in the car, but I have a regular T56 ready to be installed, once the sale is pending.

I also have various parts that are required to add electronic steering. I have been planning to do it for a long time, but have not had the time to do it. Parts will include a Toyota Prius steering column, the steering ECU, and a few shaft adapters. I also have a TCP bump steer kit that I have not installed.

I will also consider delivering the car within a reasonable distance, provided a plane ticket back is purchased by the buyer (flight back to Birmingham, AL).

I thought I would post a recap of some media coverage. In addition to the Holley video, there were also a few articles written about the car.

Last week I worked on the car and installed the electronic power steering (EPS). I have it working now where the level of power assist is automatically variable based on vehicle speed. This was accomplished by integrating the EPS with the Holley Dominator ECU.
