Is he crazy? yeah, But the 2 bidders are more of a nut job then he is.

45k buy it now? LOLLLLLLLLL I could almost build TWO of those for that price.
If you actually read the listing, he says that more than 90k was put into the car.

That 502 is t*ts. Turbo 350 though? really? You'll never see that car on the highway.
I think it's meant to drive at the strip and around town to cruise nights, not on the highway. But I may be wrong

What really gets me is that from the description and pictures it doesn't look like he's done much at all with the suspension setup. Which sucks, because our cars from the factory didn't handle very well.

And more importantly, i wonder if he's got any frame braces installed, or if he boxed the frame. With that setup, and no reinforcement you're doomed for problems. sh*t the g_body frames flex alil under the power load of the stock drivetrain. With 600HP that mother****er will probably eat the white walls right off the face of the tires on tight turns!

That rear suspension is pretty far from stock. I'd be willing to bet if the car was backhalved, then it's probably got a boxed frame

-I agree wholeheartedly on this guy being nuts!
-I agree 45k is a crazy price!
-502 is nice, but way too much chrome...the word gaudy comes to mind.
-Front suspension looks all stock to me.
-The frame must have been strengthened, did anyone else notice that the exhaust pipes go through a crossmember that isn't the trans crossmember?? where do you get one of those??

X2 and that's just in parts. Though it could be the retail price. He's a mechanic so probably got dealer prices.

Modified turbo 350. It's got OD and did I read 6 speeds?

x2! I figured it was custom.

I like how it's tubbed and still has a stock looking back seat though.
