Default "Shop Beater" is finished!! (69 PT camaro)

Well after a grueling 5 months I can finally call teh project finished!! It is done! I have worked my tail off teh last few months getting it to where I wanted it. Its really amazing that two months ago I thought I was done, then you continually change things and finally get what you want. I am very happy with the outcome of the car, and hate to see it leave but I must sell it to finance my two other 69's I am building.

Quick Specs
Full DSE treatment, mini tubs, upper arms, 3" drop leafs, 2" drop coils, complete DSE steering setup , pump and all!
18x8 and 18x12 Intro V-rod with Michelins
All new sheetmetal, I mean everything!
New interior
383 SBC, Edelbrock AL heads, 440 HP estimated
TKO 600, 5 speed
13" wilwoods with 4 pistons, on all corners
Hydraboost
Every nut, bolt, metal, trims, bumpers, glass, etc is brand spanking new!
Custom Stereo with (2) 10's and fiberglass trunnk enclosure

Here are some pics

yeah there bidding!! But you can tell they are not bidding to buy it! The ones that actually want it are the ones that call and inquire about it. I have yet to talk to any of the actual bidders! It should sell but it'll be a sale off of ebay to one of the folks who have called and talk to me hours about the car!

yeah it really is. But usually how it goes! I have tried to sell at least four custom cars and trucks on fleabay. But it always ends up being a off ebay sell to someone who saw it one there but does the deal offline!

I guess the bidders go tell there buddies, "man I am bidding on this badass car on ebay and I am the high bidder" then a few days later when it sells offline or ends they tell there buddy "Oh the A-hole sold it someone else!!"

I always first email and expect an answer by email, that way I have proof of what was told to me. After that, I call with more questions for the seller and then email those same questions so that I have it on record. Just so that both buyer and seller are on the same page. Good luck with the sale, the car looks very nice.
