He admits that it is hard to drive!!! Great selling point!!

But honestly, how hard can an auto trannied, "big cam" car be to drive? I've driven my Father-in-law's '69 Camaro with a bored and stroked, "big cammed" 350 that is putting tons of power to the ground and had no trouble at all driving it. :roll:

Umm, right! A museum, sure. Like maybe the "City Salvage Junk Yard and Automotive History Museum?"

Only someone from Texarkana would build something like that!!!!! No offense intended to anyone here who may be from Texarkana, Texas!!! :roll:

Maybe it's the no power steering or brakes part that makes it hard to drive. So is it "no brakes" or "no (power) brakes" is what I wonder... :lol:

I would tend to think it is "no brakes" Though that wouldn't make it hard to drive, just hard to stop!! :lol:

In car classified ad speak this translates to:

" I built a butt ugly, undrivable POS with no brakes and now I want someone else to fund my next stupid car project."

Update
Listed for six days and not a bid. I wonder if the seller has gotten a hint yet. I guess he will be paying for a reserve not met listing. :stupid:

This answers the previously unasked question: "What if Neal Harrington and Steve Blalock joined forces to build a track car?"

I'm curious as to what is written under the tail lights.

The squared-off hacksawed wheel arches are particularly stylish.

33 minutes and still no takers... :whoknows:

$40,000 for a fiat-based pinewood derby car is a real steal.
