I would have jumped at it for $2500 if I didn't already have my car. Hadn't seen any vids on your 55 lately. Hope you are doing well. When are you going to put an engine in the truck?

If I didn't already have two cars and a truck, I'd be driving to Catoosa tomorrow.
So a break down of the car is in order if you have not been following along. 1980 Regal bolted onto a complete rust and accident free 1987 SS Monte Carlo chassis. 3.73 posi rear, SS Monte CZ coded 2004R trans. New wheel cylinders, brake shoes, axle seals and pinion seal. New ball joints, a arm bushings, drilled and slotted rotors, bearings, calipers, brake shoes, idler arm, and urethane bushings on sway bar. It has a rebuilt 350 engine, 30 over dish pistons, 305 HO ported heads (rebuilt), 467 lift cam, Melling oil pump, Cloyes double roller chain, Edelbrock Performer RPM Air Gap intake, 600 Holley, MSD HEI, full tube headers with Flowmasters. New water pump, fuel pump, alternator, belts, hoses, heater valve, fan clutch, thermostat, Champion 4 row radiator. Has new Optima battery, cables, and mini starter. Tires I bought new 2 years ago but one tire has a broken belt I guess. Bucket seats from 85 SS Monte, factory Regal console, and brand new carpet. Reman power steering pump with new hoses. New U joints too. I know I'm forgetting stuff. The car will need a front end alignment and one tire
Transmission rebuilt with shift kit and a few other goodies.
Rust fixed.
Body blocked and epoxy primed.

So I was bored and went for another drive in the Regal. Another long video of talking about different things. If anything, there's a good stop to rolling burnout at 20.26. I nice 2-3 scratch while on it at around 17.
Sad to see you won't get to enjoy it but glad to see it go to a good home. Thanks for saving another G Body. I hope your financial situation improves soon.
I loved watching each and everyone of your videos building this car , your work is amazing.
I am so sad to see you have to part ways with it , But understand why now.
Hopefully in your future there be another G -body built.
till then good luck and be safe.
