-Well everyone has seen the rebuilding of the SHO in my thread in the "SHO Related" section. It has been an informative and learning experience to say the least to take one down that far and bring it back. i guess it could have been worse were there any body work to do, but thankfully, that was not neccesary. Anyway, after much debate, i have decided to move on from it and do some other things. I now have two kids in college and want to spend more time with them and the family. So with that i am putting the rebuilt '95 up for sale. for anyone who may have missed the year long adventure here is a link to the thread.

-and now here is the attributes of the car......it has at the moment, approximatley 119k miles on as of this writing. White with full leather tan interior, sunroof, CD, keyless. the car needs absolutly nothing on the mechanical side, as all was replaced. All parts are NOS, new or reman/refurbished. AND......i pretty much have all the receipts to show all of it. here is the list.....

-and dont forget, a new set of ALSBs, a set of Tokicos w/Eibachs, a new set of Russell brand SS brake hoses, G3 brake upgrade, along with custom painted white G4 wheels wrapped in a new set of Nexen N5000 tires.....

If you add up the entire list of performance/upgrade/NOS/new parts, not counting those from the salvage yard, you will see that its more than half of the price i'm asking. you wont find another car for sale that has this many new parts at one time, other than a new one.

i may have left something out, but if i did, i will add it in when i remember....:nut:lol
the only thing this car needs is minor interior trim work. to make it perfect, you would be to have to take it all the way down to total dissassemble, but for a 16 year old car, it's pretty darn good. a better "looking" steering wheel will help. The drivers seat has started separating in two places, and at some point it will need a new headliner covering. The car has ZERO body rust, please refer to the thread pictures of the body, as the entire underbelly was cleaned and stripped of ANY rust, which was only surface rust. But the car is great. drives straight and true. accelerates and stops as it should. nothing unexpected. i have driven it over 2k miles since completion. no runs, no drips, no errors. It deserves a good home, and i would prefer it go to someone here. Price is $5,995. And yes, will listen to offers. If anyone has any questions, i will be happy to answer. you may pm, text or call me at 256-223-9809 thats my cell. may have to leave a voice mail if its during work. sometimes i can get to it, sometimes i cant. if you need a pic of something that isnt in these or in the thread, lmk, i will get it for you. thanks to all in advance....

Nicest Gen II ever. Nice job on the build, Stu. Hope you get full price. Just put the front passenger door panel back in. :)

Wow. Good luck with that sale. Like Chris said, that is probably the cleanest gen 2 ever. I would say that is worth every penny, just due to all the work that went into that. Hope you get what you are asking. How many miles did you actually get to enjoy that?

Wow....all the blood, sweat, and tears, and now you're selling it? That kinda sucks man. GLWS though. You sure didn't cut corners with this one. Rebuilt from the ground up!

Yeah that's what I was thinking. You made a pretty much brand new SHO with your own hands and you want to sell it? Nice work and good luck.

-fingers crossed as some guys coming to work to view it today.......

but also wanted to put out there the white slicers i had on the car are for sale. i dont have anything to put them on now, so maybe someone would like them for their white car. two have the lip scraped about 6 inches or so, like curb rash, but the lip is still there, not ground down or broken. will include the center caps which i forgot to take a pic of.........$150 + shipping....

So far the money is not coming in from the insurance from our totaled 92. Had we gotten what they alluded to this would be ours already. I don't think we can pull the money together though. My wife and I have a budget to stick to but thanks for taking to me via phone and here trying to work it out. I'll let you know if we can get $ together.

FYI to those reading...my wife bought shodoggs 92 black on black and some uninsured b%#!^ totaled it. So were looking at a couple to replace it. RIP 92

Thread jack over...this is such a gorgeous SHO I wish we could buy it ASAP.
