Description

I am the owner of this car and I ordered this car new. It is fully sorted out and runs, drives, steers, and handles incredibly well. Kirkham charges $100,000 for a roller with zero options and the wait time is close to 2 years. My car has a $15,000 polish job performed by Kirkham, $5,000 in options, a $10,000 Ford racing Crate motor, a custom $5,000 headers and exhaust system, $2,300 5 speed transmission, and those are just the major parts. If you have built a car before, you know that smaller items like fittings, clutch, carburetor, fuel pressure regulator, etc. add up extremely quickly. You can't come close to building this car for what I am asking. The only reason I am selling it is because I have a second child on the way and children have proved to be more expensive than I ever imagined.

If you have any questions or would like to discuss the car, please PM me for my cell number.I ordered the car new in 2013. It took 18 months for it to be built and then i ended up sending it back to Kirkham to have the body finished and polished after realizing it was was much more involved than I initially thought. I have all receipts for the parts and build photos to go along with the car.This car is fully sorted out and ready to be enjoyed! The power to weight ratio is amazing and the engine is extremely powerful, yet runs flawlessly.
I am willing to discuss partial trades. I would be interested in a driver quality 65-66 Mustang fastback, GT350 Clone, or a 2000-2002 Viper GTS.
