Most Every item on the car has been inspected and either refurbished or replaced. The trans and rear axle has not been touched by me, work great! The only items not working are the wipers (never needed them but have 2 extra motors, just need install) and the tachometer (never needed it). The tie-rods are currently not worn; I just wanted to replace them. I have invested over $14,500.00 to date, not including my labor and time (probably well over 200 hours).
I am asking $10,500.00 and will consider full or partial trade for newer Chevy or GMC pick-up truck.
