This car belongs to a friend that I've been going to car shows and cruises with for about a year now. Frank built this car from the ground up, and it's been His "Baby" since 2001. The car has a 429 built for some serious street duty. 400 HP, 2500 RPM converter, 9 inch Ford rear end with 3:25 gears and limited slip.
Frank asked me to put this car on ebay for Him(It's there now.), and use my photos, as He's ready to build another project car. He says He enjoys building them as much a He does driving them.
I for one will miss it. :( Enjoy. -Bruce :D

Nope :p

I even submitted a bit on it.
But $8700 was definitely not going to cut it.
Still, for about 0.005 seconds, I nearly felt like the owner of that great car :lol:

I got your message, but it's almost midnight and we just got back to our room. (This is Las Vegas, after all.) Such a car would only be a pipe dream for me, but thanks for the offer.

Did anyone ever tell you, you have a lot of traffic in this city? Sheesh. :lol:
