As awesome as the car was, and time invested, and all the effort…….
Not having it in my garage doesn’t change how I normally spend my days.
The impact of the lack of material things is much smaller than we anticipate….
Even my kids said “dad, you should have cried for more views”
It wasn’t too big of a deal. Simply time to move on.
Did you watch the packing up video? I thought it might be kind of boring watching me pack a tote. But I thought SQ people might relate a little to some of the things I had saved…
Listed the car on eBay today for visibility…

I’m just ready to move on. Been 14 years.
Been eyeballing other cool cars. Things like C7 Z06s or Viper Gen2 GTSs. Maybe a VW dune buggy 4-seater for the wife and kids to enjoy with me as well.
I’m glad I was able to get the car completed. It’s extremely fun, and gets ton of attention at shows and meets. And it’s plenty fast for me.
But I’ve hit a wall where I refuse to spend another dime on it. I can’t justify another dollar on it after these 14 years. Just the past 2 years has cost me a stupid amount of money in parts and shop labor. But it’s done and I’m proud of the results.
