Holy crap I would be all over that if it were in the US. Relatively low miles and in pretty good condition, I'd consider it worth a lot more.

It's not telling at all that his second post is 12 hours after his first and is instantly defensive about the price. So, yes, he knows he's asking too much.

No he's not! In fact, it's reasonable and a bargain because he's seen them go for $34K and up (probably in 2002 but that's beside the point).

Given the condition & kms on the car & and the fact that I'm not in a rush at all to sell the car, yes 30k is a reasonable price. Ive seen these go for 34 and up before at similar kms

Beautiful Street Legal car built for the track. '66 AC COBRA Replica with 600 cubic inch Big Block Chevrolet engine. 930 horsepower. First stage of Nitrous brings it to 1380 horsepower. Has a Second stage too!

Powerglide transmission, 14 bolt GM rear end. Three sets of progressively quieter sidepipes. Runs cool and well behaved on the street.

Fast ?.......
7.96 seconds at 170 mph in the quarter mile, 1.19 60' time.
0-60 in just over 1 second!

I'm saddened to let this car go after so many years but it is time. Other priorities take over for now, a faster car will replace it when it is time.

I believe ElehemEare's qualm is that it has an "autotragic" transmission. which means he's built us a manual transmission that can take 1380+ horsepower.

Thank you, ElehemEare. Thank you from the entire automotive world.
