Agreed.

I knew a dude that did that with some electronics that his wife wanted him to get rid of, but he didn't want to get rid of the stuff. He priced the items so high that there was no interest, and then was able to tell her that there were no buyers.

So my friend has been humoring this guy and I'm going to set up an appointment to see this beast of a car...

So what's the asking price?

I see alot of prices for what you paid for the parts, personally I feel/know alot of these prices are over stated.

Have more pics?

I don't know about the pricing, the list was given to me by the guy that built it. I do know that my friend was riding with him and it would burn rubber at a hundred. That sounds dangerous to me. It is a hot car.

What pictures would you want?

I would like to see more pics of the car in general, interior, exterior, underhood, etc... So, you are telling me, you and I can go hop in the car right now, and while doing 100mph- we roll into the throttle and it will spin the tires?

Name your price.

How many miles on the body?

How many miles on the mods?
