Car was restored back in 2000 while it still lived in the states. it then had a blown 472 hemi in it. it was imported to australia in 2010 and i purchased it in 2011 and that is when i began my pro touring project on her. car is registered and drives very nicely. this car was my baby and very sad to have to sell it. There is a couple of small things that need adjusting or tinkering with but other than that is complete and very ready to be driven as hard or soft as you like. it is LO2 mod plated and registered until december. it is also insured for 100k. not neally what it is worth. There is alot of things i have left out in the description. but everything has been updated or renewed with performance and durability in mind. i can guarantee you can drive this car daily and then take it to the track on the weekend and eat some ricers and ferraris. also comes with a car alarm system which is not installed and custom car cover

feel free to ask any questions. i have receipts for everything and pictures of the build. cost over 160k in cluding the price of the car inititally for me to build this project so i believe the deal is great
