FS Cougar. New stuff since last time

[Science Abuse]

This car is for going fast, period.

 

I'm liquidating my whole racing operation. I haven't even had time to drive it lately, nevermind go to track days or installing my new toys.

What you get is a whole lot of stuff, but summarized you get;

-Strong 5.0 w/ TKO

-in a IRS turn-key caged smelly loud car

-a heap of parts to support the habbit of racing.

This car has been on the NASA Pro Racing front page. People ove seeing it come out and it is much faster around a road course than anyone expects it to be. In groupe 2, I was never passed. In group 3, the R-compund porsches and such get by after their tires are up to temp. With the R-compounds on this car, I've only been passed by very impressive cars and experienced drivers.

 

Pictures of anything are available apon request, just give me an e-mail adress.

$4500 obo

I don't suppose there's anyway you're willing to part with the cobra wheels is there?

 

 

GLWS!

Yes, buy the car. Would really like to move this car and get on with another project that's less "dedicated" (Meaning, one in which I can have passengers), so I'm offering the whole package to sweeten the deal. If it sells via this method, I'd be willing to talk about selling rims.

You're not allowed to sell my first stall converter car.

 

Cute kid too, definitely doesn't look like you

Well then give me the asking price, I'll give you the car... and keep the title. Should technically make ya happy.

[MrMeanGreen]

Don't need another car, haha.

 

To anyone looking to buy this, it WILL out perform Corvettes in turns :grin2:

Want to go to Zurich in Feb, $4000obo.

[Moostang]

street legal?

[Science Abuse]

Essentially, yes kinda mostly. If its inspected, they may notice the exhaust isn't legal (though it's not obnoxious), but I'm not sure what else they would ding it for. It's got seats, seatbelts, windows, bumpers. If it stays registered in ohio, no one will ever have to inspect it. I've been pulled over a few times in it, cops didn't care. In fact I've only gotten warnings for my traffic indiscretions.

TTT

In a deal Making Mood.

Ich will in der Schweiz reisen, Ich benötige einige Franc!

[Science Abuse]

Looks likeI've got a buyer waythe hell down in Oak Ridge, TN.... some one up here buy it so I don't have to drive it 4 hours!

[Mark1647545493]

If you sell the car and not all the parts, LMK. I would be interested in the 3.55 center section and a few other parts that would be compatible with my Super Coupe.

[Science Abuse]

Sold.
