Arrow Project Car officially for sale - 1996 Camaro SS - 396 - Many good parts

Well, after much debate and comtemplation, my project car is now officially for sale. Those who have e-mailed me about it before, please e-mail me again. I lost a few e-mails around that time.

Engine:
396 by Nu-Tek Motorsports
Callies Crank and Rods
Canfield ported heads
Custom grind cam (can get specs for it later)
Diamond Racing Pistons
LT1 Intake - chrome ceramic coated by Paul Barry - hollowed out to accept Monoblade - ported to match heads
Canton Oil Pan
Comp Cams 1.6 rockers
Custom aluminum valve covers

Engine can be seen here, but is shown before Intake was prepped for monoblade:

Engine never fired, awaiting installation

Other items:
Hooker Long Tubes coated by Paul Barry - new, never installed
Mufflex 4" system w/custom tips (looks like an SLP "2 on da left" but slightly bigger tips) - new in box, never installed
McLoed Street Twin with Aluminum Flywheel - new in box, never installed
Stock M6 trans (out of car)
AS&M Monoblade TB - new in box, never installed
BIG Aeromotive Fuel Pump (forgot model number - can get info later) - new, never installed

Car:
1996 Camaro SS #259
No engine or trans in the car
26,000 miles
Original tires on front with decent tread left, Nitto Drag Radials on back with less than 5 passes and 1,000 miles on them. Still have "nubs".
Agostino Racing Tubular K-member w/A-arms
Leather Interior in VG to Excellent shape, no large scratches or major wear spots
T-tops
Bose CD player w/5 speaker system
White faced gauges
Tinted windows
All Interior pieces intact, no damage, all in excellent shape
Hotchkis Lower Control Arms
SLP level II suspension (part of SS pkg)
Former show winner
Paint in great shape, only a couple of very minor nicks and scuff that can be very easily fixed

Only serious modification to body is BMR SFC's and K-member/A-arms as mentioned above. SFC's are new, they were welded on but never driven while on/since installed.

There are also a few other misc items that would go with it. This includes various parts from stock engine. This car/engine has a LOT of potential. All someone needs to do is finish it.

If you can't buy this car but can point someone to it and it sells, I will give you a $500 cash referral fee. This is under the situation where someone would not have known about this car being for sale without you telling them.

$15,000 takes it all. Selling due to not having time to finish it.

E-mail me if interested or need more info. Willing to discuss over the phone if serious. Let's talk.

I seem to recall this is a low compression motor to accept a nasty Vortech.

A) is the blower included?

B) What is the compression ratio?

Ahhh...Nick knows his stuff.

Unfortunately, no.

Ahhh...Jason's memory sucks. I know this sounds crazy/stupid, but it has been so long that I forgot the exact numbers. I can definitely find out.

Why do you ask? Know someone who is interested?

I am amazed at how many people are asking me that. I do not want to separate the car from the engine, but if the offer was right, I might consider it. Shoot me an e-mail if you would like to make an offer.

If you do part it out, I would be very interested in the heads/intake/valve covers and possibly the T-56. Please let me know!

I could very possibly take that Street twin off of your hands if you start parting the car out.

Just to give everyone an update, I have a couple of possible deals pending, but no definite deal has been made. In other words, no cash in my hand for it yet so consider it still for sale.

Some of you I have not had time to e-mail back. Apologies for that, I have been extremely busy. Feel free to e-mail me again if you like as a reminder for me to get back to you.

No, I don't have the original floor mats. They went with the car when I sold it back in 2002.
