The car was built by an aircraft maintenance/engineering professional. It’s safe, dependable, very fast and it handles great. It has only been driven, by me, for less than 2500 miles since it was finished in November of 2003. The car has never been raced or abused in any way since it was built. The car is kept covered, and in a garage, in South Florida. – There are a couple of items that are not perfect or that may need to be completed or corrected. One, the paint job has some minor imperfections. Two, the A/C System has to be serviced with Freon R-12 or converted to R-134 (all the A/C parts are new, except for the compressor, condenser and hoses, which are all in good condition). There are also some small imperfections in the interior which are probably only noticeable by a perfectionist like me. I have the receipts and instructions for all the parts/components that have been installed on the car. It has a clear Florida Title; a current tagged and is insured. Shipping Information: The car would be shipped from the South Florida area and is sold As Is, Where Is; with No Warranty either expressed or implied. The Buyer will be responsible for pick up of the car from Miami/Kendall, FL. Any shipping arrangements must be made by Buyer. Seller assumes no responsibility for any repairs regardless of any oral statement about the car. It is the responsibility of the Buyer to fully inspect car and to have satisfied themselves as to the condition of the car. The car was built with the intention of keeping it forever but now that I’m retired I find myself in need of money more than I need the car. My loss is your gain!!
