Yea,I think I will work on an ebay ad and just leave the car the way it is.A smart buyer should be able to see the value of the car as it is. And if they think it needs some added comfort's I will help them w/the install if need be. With a few days work a/c & roll up 1/4 glass could be added. Thank's guy's.

Scott---would love to see you keep the car---saw it at Optima last year--it's perfect the way it is for exactly what you built it for. If you have to sell it, then pull off the stickers and make it more street friendly looking---it's really one of the ultimate Pro Touring vehicles around--and I would agree in this case with Todd (can't believe I just said that) --you will have a much larger audience for the car by taking stickers off and making it a street looking PT car. I certainly would try it on EBAY or at the auctions mentioned just the way it is as there may be that one buyer that loves it just like you do and has the same vision. If that doesn't work---go the street friendly look. I need more money laying around--i'd take it just the way it is fosure.
I am a huge fan of race cars on the street with that 'just off the track' look. Having said that, I think this car will do better on the market sans stickers. The stickers are limiting your audience to those who want a race car AND a Sunoco/Donahue tribute car. I would also make it water tight if not already. If lack of carpet and A/C turns away a buyer on this particular car, it's not the right buyer. Just my opinion.
Neil,The car is water tight.The 1/4window's don't leak but water down thru. the brake duct hose would get the rear rotor's wet.I have nice 1/4 glass and roll up track's.Then tube up thur. the floor would need to get cut off then sealed.I could make it a real driveable street camaro real easy,BUT then it's just another camaro.See what ebay does in a few week's.Don't need the money,Just want to finish my next project a liitle sooner.Thank's for your opinion. Scott.

Keep it just the way it is Scott. It was the intention of your build to do this tribute car, why change it. Its listed at a great price, give it time somebody that respects the heritage will appreciate would you built and snatch it from ya.
After watching the Optima invitational on speed last night it sure look's awesome on the screen.I think I will leave it as it is and just see what it does on ebay.Maybe I just take my time finishing the 72 camaro and just enjoy the 69 a year longer.
THANK YOU SPEED TV. thanks to speed tv for replaying the Optima invitational last night.After watching the 2009 invitational I had an email from someone who saw the car on Tv for how ever brief it was.And after a phone call he has agreed to buy the car.And I will be delivering it after the charlotte good guy's.So thank you everybody for all the kind word's and opinion's given.This is really a great group of people here at Lateral-g : .Thank you Scott Mock.
