It's been stripped for the most part since late 2008

Was going to build a full track car out of it until I started to come across some rare Zender parts and I'm going for it.

The shell

Marcski grabbed these for me after I won them on German eBay

The motor that's going in is a g60 block with cam, Lysholm charger, stage 4 chip and Callaway intercooler. Hoping to get it squared away and on the road early enough to take it to H2O
