The car wasbuilt by South Texas Performance in Victoria, TX to benefit the Warriors Weekend veteran charity. Further modifications, including the manual transmission conversion, were done byApollo Performance in Corpus Christi, TX.The car is currently located in Houston, TX. It sounds awesome and people will definitely hear you coming!

KNOWN ISSUES

The windshield wipers stopped working. I removed them, and they are included.

The steering wheel is not aligned (the bolt pattern is different).

The rear air shocks leak a few PSI a day at high PSIs.

Oil and transmission fluid leaks a few drops a week. There are no other leaks.

After the high beams have been on for a while, they start to blink. It must be a thermal issue. Not a problem with low beams.

The engine needs a timing adjustment or rev limiter adjustment to put out more power. It stutters in high gears, at highway speeds, when a lot of pedal is applied (high power).

Everything else works to my knowledge even the glovebox light, horn, and interior lights.

The new odometer reads just under 5000 miles since the build. Selling because my wife and I had a baby and I need less hobbies. Happy to answer any questions, just send a message. If you are local to Houston, feel free to come take a look in person or take it on a test drive. Also happy to take calls anytime after the purchase to answer any questions. I reserve the right to end the auction if the vehicle sells locally. Thanks for looking!
