Anyone want this project for cheap?

I am starting to hate it, as it's 3 steps back to one forward.

I've lost that loving feeling.

I was supposed to race this, this year. Instead, the 2015 Z06 and my Black GMC went.

I'll take PM's before I post it up.

I pm'd you JJ. But I think you shouldn't give up. Don't let the car defeat you. Take a step back and put it aside. There's really no deadlines to meet besides the ones in your own mind. Things will fall into place if you allow them to.

I am not defeated. I can build the car. I just don't want to.

Most gear heads emotionally invest in their cars. I am negatively invested.

Instead of working on this, or paying someone to work on this, I'd rather drive/race my black GMC or the Z06 Vette.

Sorry to hear this JJ, its a sweet project.

sometimes a bad experience can ruin the feel for a car. I don't blame you at all.

That is it. If I finish this, it would be called black betrayal. There is no good feeling in it left.

Sure, PM or email your number.

Since this project got borked, it's been sitting in my head.

All that said, I've been told by several buyers that it's value is compromised due to some of the issues that happened during the build. Those have been corrected, but perception is key in high dollar cars.

So I decided to roll it into the corner of the shop. I'll leave the for sale thread going.

I finished a 70 Trans Am that's really fun to drive, bought a race car stacker and now building a 1958 Diamond T semi with a big sleeper to pull it. Have a 475HP Catepillar big block and a 13 speed Road Ranger on Peterbuilt low air leaf suspension.

When the snow flies here, I will probably get back on this.

You need to post pictures of the new rig, and Trans Am.
