Wide Body V8 on EBay w/ Right Stuff

Wow! I usually turn my nose up at V8 conversions but this looks bad-to-the-bone inside & out. Totally tricked out. I wouldn't have chosen that color though...

So that means this guy has been trying to sell it before on EBay? 1st time I've seen it, sorry. It still is a hot machine IMO.

tricked out?, whatever

Before an Rx should be considered tricked out, it should not be equipped with an automatic tranny, lousy decision.

Yeah, Vipernicus ( Jon ) combined a couple of threads on this car a couple of weeks ago. I'd like to drive it once, but not own it.

Ack! that thing is just awful!
with most of the pics from 10 ft away you can still see that nothing fits right. the gaps around the hood and the lights are all uneven and entierly to wide. Seriously, if you are going to do it spen some freakin time to get it right. all that would take is spending another 8-10 hours for even a novice to get right.

And don't get me started on the paint, uh oh he got maaco. sopuld have forgotten about the 5g's in stereo equip with flat panel display and gotten a real paint job. That paint is flatter than an 11yr old girl.

oh yeah and I love this
Standard Equipment:
8 CYLINDERS 350 Liters

hehe a chevy 350 liters thats the super rare gargantuan block.

I spent 5 grand getting my gaps right - before the paint. Yeah, my wide body is pretty f****** near perfect. But it's just an IMSA Pacific kit w/a SP 13B RB job onboard. My 240Z has the 350 w/ all the *****.
I might just bid on this car but I personally couldn't get into having a 7 w/ a stinkin V8.
