thedarkie Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 (edited) Trying to decide whether to swap to a more modern sports car.. not sure what dollar figure to put on my car Super clean body and undercarriage, not a spec of rust. Nice paint - not concours quality, but very nice. Car was on a rotisserie about 6-7 years ago. Engine is a freshly swapped Ford small-block 363 (6.0L) built on an aftermarket Dart block with 4 bolt mains. Forged bottom end, Diamond 10:1 pistons, TFS-R heads, MSD ignition etc etc. Basically a no expense spared motor. Only "downside" is that its still carbureted, but the big Vic intake has injector ports and I have rails, injectors and other small parts to get into an EFI conversion. As it sits should be right around 500hp - and it certainly goes like stink and blows the tires away in 1-2-3 - I haven't dyno'd it yet as its basically just getting out of the break-in period. Arizona Z car coilovers all around as well as their tubular control arms, Wilwood brakes, R200 LSD Interior is very nice - if I was going the next step I would just do a fresh carpet kit. Seats in beautiful condition, clean dash, MOMO steering wheel and an AEM wideband gauge. I ordered speedhut gauges but they're taking forever to arrive so I'd probably sell with the stock ones. Speedo doesn't work, the rest are A-OK. Edited August 28, 2017 by thedarkie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

331CI 280z Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 It looks like it is a Canadian car. I just did quick research on what it would take to import into the USA and it looks like a pain in the a$$. I am sure that there is a market for your car here in the US if it could be imported but I am not familiar at all with Canadian prices. https://www.cbp.gov/trade/basic-import-export/importing-car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
