Hey Everyone, lately with my schedule and a need for a smaller hobby, I'm putting my 78 TA up for sale. I purchased it for $10,000 about 1.5 years ago and have put about 7k into so far in suspension, interior, wheels, and general cleanup, fixing the trouble rust spots, etc.

I'm asking 16k out the door, includes a new set of Drag Welds and brand new Drag Radials and skinnies and a car cover.

15k takes the car without the extra set of wheels\tires.

Pictures below and a full ad listing. If you aren't interested, can you pass this link on to someone who might be?
