Mileage: ~100k

Description:

For the past 4 years this car has been nothing but amazing to me as I took it from a raw base to where it is now. While I still consider it in the middle of the build, it is perfectly cruisable as it sits. I have moved to manhattan, and this car sits at my parents house and gets used once a month... If that. Its never seen a drag strip, road course or autox. Oil is changed every 3 months, along with spark plugs every 6.
In my opinion this car is one of the most unique things you will see in the tuning scene, mixing classic cars w/ new motor and styling. Originally built to be a street/track car, I got caught up in the world of motorcycle racing and as long as that exists I can't see a reason to race a car. That being said
I will consider trades for full size pickups only
I do not need another tuner car, as I will be moving on to something with the ability to get my track bike all over the east coast.
The bad:
slight rubbing on hard bumps on the driver side rear wheel with 2 people in the car. Not really horrible but worth a mention
The paint is like a 6/10-- chips around the fender wells where they were modded to fit the works
The sunroof is unfinished restoration. What really needs to happen is the metal thats in here needs to come out (4 spot welds and some putty) and a fresh piece needs to get welded in, smoothed over and painted.
The passenger frame rail is repaired. Ideally if you are going to race it you should get the beefed rails anyway- but for the past 4 years i have driven it like this without a single issue. The Chassis is straight, it drives true, but again its worth a mention.

Teenagers...

[drifter1000]

You have a beautiful build, ESPECIALLY the motor and interior.

I do have to admit though, I'm not a teenager and I just wonder why you did this. Not bagging on your car, just asking a question. As I said it's a beautiful build, but I always liked the 260's and 240's as they are (although it's not my car).

Good luck with sale man!

[derek king]

That front end is fucking amazing. All around awesome. Damn That is one I would love to add to the collection.

[Holloway]

Sooo tempting to make a cash offer on this thing...

The first owner of the car did all the bodywork. I never got his full information but he was a popular body man back in the early 80s who started the work (you can see in the member journal thread)

Anyway, the 2nd owner ( who I purchased the car off of was the brother of the owner of top hat motorsports. They put the RB in. Unfortunately, he ran into some money trouble so I picked it up truely unfinished and took it to where it is now.

To be honest when i bought it i wasnt a fan of the front either but it grew on me more and more. Much smoother then the oem (unless you go G-Nose) but its also cool to have something that is the only one in the world. Which is truely the case with this car

Anyway Ill take the free bumps all day long, and this car is really something great--- maybe the pics dont do it justice but there isnt a day i drive it where i dont get positive recognition for the hard work that went into it.... particularly if they get a chance to hear the RB do what it does best....
