History
I wrecked my old Corvette at the Atco Division race in 1995. I decided to build a new one in 2001, and ordered it from Suncoast in Florida. It took me five years to finish it because of my job, money, and other delays.
When I finally ran the car, I wasnāt happy with it. I played around with it for a bit, but then my guys all moved away and I was left on my own. Everyone I brought in after that was not helpful. Then there was the year of rain, and then Atco shut down. I started to lose interest in the car because the fun was gone.
Iām a true car nut, so I tried to get my mojo back, but it never came. Throwing money at it didnāt help. Then I hurt my back and now I canāt drive the car. I wonāt let anyone else drive it either, because I donāt want them to wreck it. Only I can crash it!
So now the car is for sale. Come on, guys, buy it!
Current Issues
None!
