Trans:Quaife lsd
PICperformance.com custom 4.73 fd (new in June) First fd by PIC, NO issuses!
Totally rebuilt with bearings and seals in April 06 by me.

Body:
Car was hit on left front corner in July, 3/4 front clip, all new factory honda parts used. Car aligned just fine for the Nationals, so most of the front end is brand new, and there is NO frame damage, car is as perfect as the day it was built.

Currently, car took a light hit yet again on the left front corner, light damage. No front bumper cover. NO frame damage... car will need the following:
new headlight, new lf fender, upper radiator support , new hood, and new left side power mirror. Some other driver turned down on us in the braking zone at the nationals and it took us out of competiton on the opening lap, we started dead last on the field due to a driver change which dq'd our qual time, car and driver were in 8th place when we got hit.

I feel with a fully built bottom end the car will pick up another second, compression test in impound at Nationals was 8.2, legal is 9.7, so the rings are leaking, but the bearings looked fine.
This car can be competitive in H4 with a good driver, it has proven to have lots of potential, and has been very quick at some tracks, with out a 4.9 fd.
Besides the light front end damage, the car needs nothing to go race, log book is in good standing, and it is ready to race after body work.
I am discounting the car 1000, due to the damage.

I have many pictures, serious inquires only, divorce forces sale, other extra parts included if you pick up the car and trailer in N.E. Ohio. I have totes and other nick nacks to give into the package as well, chemicals, and all sorts of stuff, gaskets, etc...

my private address for picture requests: rhm5@zoominternet.net

Package Recap:
Car, trailer, spare wheels/tires + extras, canopies (complete race package), plus all set up data for Mid-Ohio, Putnam Park, Beave Run.
Most of this car is like new except the unitbody itself, and there is NO RUST anywhere on this car, including the frame rails.
$7,500 firm. (Trailer value is 2k alone.) (reduced $1,000) Must sell ASAP TO AFFORD DIVORCE.
The trailer needs nothing, was brand new in April. Used for about 800 total miles this summer (estimated). (rachet straps included with car and trailer) Trailer not available seperately, this is a package deal only.

If you want a car that can run up front, this is a great car, it has always turned heads being a 4 door and ran in the 45's at mid ohio with out pushing it too hard on toyo's, ran 108's at Beave Run, I forget Putnam times.

Phone number: (daytime) 330-241-5333 leave message please.

Thanks guys...I'd love to keep her, but the divorce has forced me to walk away from racing. The family and I at the track is something I can never replace now, and I have really lost my love affair with the car, I'll always hold on to the memories of you guys, and my friends at the track.

I hope this package sells, it would make me very happy to move on in my life and not have the car sitting around when it could be providing fun and wins for the right buyer.

Happy Thanksgiving guys.

Maybe you didn't notice the date, maybe you're overly optimistic. Either way, you're SOL.
