Very clean car man, I like the black and white interior, don't see it very much.  | |

JPMZ28, where did you get the seats redone? I see you are friends with wedjim and he lives in Orlando right? How much did that cost you? Thanks. | |

If the motor wasn't making so much HP the air inlet might not have caught on fire! LOL
You guys should see this car in person!
The interior is Mostly black with some grey(no white, buts may look it in the pics) to break it up.
Fernando's Upholestry will do my interior soon also,  .
I'm leaving my engine for last.

Fernando upholstery doesnt like to return calls. Maybe they are too busy? What was the cost to have the upholstery done in leather? I want to get a good idea before even thinking about having it done. When are you guys going back to OLD TOWN so i can see what you have? | |

He is very busy, but should call you back? Try him a couple more times to make sure it is getting thru.
We will be at Old Town, weather permitting, next Friday. (Saturday today)

VERY nice car! I guess I didn't realize that the BMR strut tower brace would clear the stealth ram? Did you have to mod anything to make it work, or did everything just bolt on and play nice together?
Again, awesome car, well done!

very nice car, excellent attention to detail. there's WAY too much going on in the engine bay though. i like the airbox, but the chrome is kinda cheezy looking with the hose covers everywhere and the chrome wire looms...my opinion... | |

I have only seen Longboard rims on one other car a 4th gen T/A. I dont think American Racing makes them any more.The strut brace took some work to install, had too remove upper intake and grind down and polish the ridges at the top of the upper intake so they would follow the outline of the strut brace.Then I used aluminum spacers to lift and tilt back the strut brace so it was almost parallel to the intake.Here are some pics   | |

I would say to ask $25,000!
IF you do sell that car......Someone would be getting a bad *** car with A LOT of time, money and effort in it. Brakes, engine, exhaust, tubular suspension, wheels and tires, leather, sound system, awesome paint, aftermarket intake and more!
If someone took a decent IROC into a shop to have all the same work done they would be in for a $30,000+ bill!
If it goes in the HIGH teens, it would be a steal! IT has the trophies to prove it!!!
