I just finished this car for the most part back in april. Only thing left to do is button up the interior. I have scott fab black aluminum rear seat delete panels and black aluminum trunk panels on the way and the interior will be done. The body has 38k miles on it. all parts of the build have maybe 5xx miles since new or rebuild. I have 38k in just parts in the car- not counting the vehicle itself or the time put in. everything on the car is built- motor, trans, rear, suspension etc. Here are some pics- the only thing the car really needs is some better paint I think. full part list at the bottom of the thread.

I know, I know. I don't need the money at all really- I just have an itch for a different car right now, but I know I'll regret it for the rest of my life if I sell the car. ugh. If I only had more garage space I wouldn't ever sell it I don't think.

I personally wouldn't sell it.. That's a part of your life when you build it like that.. If you have a itch honestly, just save and get one later on down the road.. Screw the garage space.. There are ways around that for sure..

Come on EncasedMetal! So much blood, sweat and pejoratives went into building this car with your own two hands. No one will ever fully appreciate it's magnificence other than yourself. I have a feeling you're going to regret this if it does sell. Don't sell it!!! Save up and buy another or put it in storage or something if garage space is an issue. If I lived nearby, I'd let you store her in my garage for free... just so you wouldn't sell it! (Yeah, crazy I know)

How is it that people dump so much money to make an amazing car then get rid of it??

You end up getting tired of staring at the underside, and the engine bay, and the floor pans, and the thing in million pieces. I am leaving work right now to start the install of the scott fab panels. full write up coming soon in the sn95 section.
