sell it quick & hope the buyer doesn't check it on carfax!!!! You do nice work but I would personally NEVER drive a car that has this much damage and hope that since you did the repairs you are not responsible for problems the next owner is definetly going to have

I currently have a salvaged 2005 Z and paid 12K for it fully rebuilt already with rims/kit and custom paintjob.

That work you did looks great! Hard to make a black car look glossy like that, nice job dude!

impressive! In retrospect, would you do it again considering the amount of time this took?

i may, i did this as kinda a hobby, if i do this agian, it will be with a clear title car, so i can take a car loan out on it for parts..instead of having to save cash for every part.

A car that's rebuilt correctly, which this one sounds like it has been, can be just as reliable or even more than a normal car. By the sounds of it he knows what he's doing so I even have confidence in him and I don't even know him. It's amazing to have skills like that. I'm still finishing up a built 383 for my street truck and then I gotta paint it. Looooong **** job.
