After 2 years and 1300 hours the car is officaly sold.. A guy from Long Isand NY came today around new time and picked up the car.
Paied cash in full for it. Crispy Hundred dollar bill's.. Unfortunily I was at work doing a crazy shift, and didnt give it a final look, -Tear http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif Tear-

I just want to say thanks for all your comments, and letting me post up some progress pictures and stuff...


Give it a last look, The guy who bought it , is spending 50k to make it into a billet ridler car... Dead Serious..

R.I.P Steve's sled..

ouch, achingly close on such a badass ride. it sucks that the rich people that can afford $50k cars have such bad taste. imagine what anyone of us on this board could do for $50k , a fricking fleet of rods each with more character than any trailer queen riddler.

Nice car, too bad ya had to sell it. =(

50 grand wouldent be one 10th of what it costs to build a riddler level street rod. Rydells 35 "Grandmaster" is rumored to be in the 7 figure range.... hell it takes a 10 grand display just to show them damn cars. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif

Sad news indeed...that car had real potential and it doesn't sound like the new owner has a vision for what that potential was.

That's a real bummer, looked like it was going to be a real tasty motor. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif

Think positively the next one will be even better if that one was anything to go by. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

Yea, it really is a shame. To many Projects, not enough room... We really got tired of working on the car.. You know its time to take a break when you wrench on it, and it feels like more work than fun..
