We originally listed this chassis on ebay and 15 minutes after the listing went live, the bidding reserve had been met. Seven days later the winning bid was $2,126 by a first time ebay bidder… WHO TURNED OUT TO BE A DEAD BEAT. So… we are now taking offers from interested parties. Please don’t make an offer less than $1,500.

My TR7 V8 Race Coupe returned from the painter this morning. This project has been a budget build from the beginning. In order to save money on this build, paint work was limited to the engine bay, the front nose, fiberglass hood and deck lid as well as the driverside  front and rear wheel arches below the body stripe. The single stage blue enamel was color matched to the existing factory color.

I am selling this Very Nice 1977 Super Beetle Convertible for a friend who purchased this Classic VW in 1997 and was the third owner of the car. During that time, the car received a same color re-spray to freshen up it’s appearance. My friend drove this car only occasionally over the last dozen years, it spent the majority of its time parked in his garage. The car has 58,801 original miles and the car is mechanically stock and unaltered. The cream color paint job is very nice and there is no evidence of rust problems. I checked the floorboards and rockers (from above) and found them all to be solid.  The car runs and drives nicely. It drips a bit of oil when parked (they all do). The convertible top is in nice condition, the only flaw being a 1″ tear on the passenger side.  There are also some special extras included with this car. The owner says $7,500 takes it.

In early November 2009, I closed a deal on this 1984 Z28 Camaro. The funds from the sale of my 1967 Volkswagen Beetle were burning a hole in my pocket and this 60,000 mile Camaro was available. Leaving at 6:00am I made the 350+ mile trip to Richmond, Indiana and picked up the car. This Z28 is finished in black with stock light tan and black interior. The engine is a very tame and very stock 305ci V8 with a 700R4 transmission. (think 383 stroker and Power Glide here) This vehicle is not show quality but cleans up nice, it looks great from 6 feet away.  This vehicle is currently inspected and licensed… and because it is over 25 years old, it no longer needs to pass emission testing (at least in Missouri). Stop me know before I buy a crate motor… I’ve already got the Power Glide. $5,000

My latest Triumph acquisition is a very solid coupe body which has an expired 2 liter engine. I have scheduled this coupe to receive a V8 transplant. My plan is to create a street car with lots of race car attitude. Stop me now while you still can. Make Offer.

In that NO ONE has stopped me, this coupe is now equipped with a fiberglass cowl hood and fiberglass deck lid. I have also rustled up a SCCA ITA cage for safety, you can catch a glimpse of the roll cage through the windshield in the hood photo. I hope to have this V8 coupe road worthy late in 2010.

Hand build replica of the #39 M.H. Miles Four Port Riley race car driven by Red Bales throughout the Midwest in the 1940’s. This Museum Quality race car features a Ford Model B drive line, 1928 Franklin steering and a hand hammered aluminum body by Junior Dryer of Indianapolis, Indiana. This car is reluctantly offered at $24,000.

This classic street rod was built in 1971 and parked in 1981. Twenty five years later I rescued it in 2006. This original steel body rides on a custom frame with Corvette rear suspension and Chevelle front spindles. The 1969 Ford 351 Windsor needs work and is scheduled to be refinished in Winter 2009… until then… you can finish it yourself for $15,000.
