I'm sure most on this forum know that this car has the WS6 performance suspension package on it, it also has an A/C delete pulley installed, Flowmaster 40 series muffler with all emissions removed. Needs a little bit of interior work like the head liner, the dash has no cracks. Car is solid and is pure muscle, I have done all the technical and go fast work. Just needs a little polishing and fine tuning, don't pass this opportunity up, make me an offer. Have over 3,000 in the engine rebuild alone! This is a steal.
