Cheers or Jeers: Vaguely Car Shaped Thing

Link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2006-Custom-Built-One-of-a-Kind-Car-not-kit-/121110276277?pt=US_Cars_Trucks&hash=item1c32bc28b5

2-seat open roadster built from the ground up by owner/seller. Driver and passenger seating areas are separated by engine compartment. Registered in Iowa in 2006 as a Specially Constructed Vehicle. State-assigned VIN is IA036388. Driven daily, so mileage will increase. Suspension loosely based on a GM full-size car with 5"x5" hubs and heavy duty brakes, but everything besides that was fabricated and welded into a completely unitized structure that is extremely rigid. Powered by a carbureted 377 cu. in. small block Chevy (400 block with a 350 crank), professionally built for low and mid-range torque (the car was designed for daily driving, not for racing). 700R4 automatic overdrive. GM 10-bolt rear with 3.23 gears and positraction. 70 mph = 1900 rpm in overdrive. 14-15 mpg during daily commute. Dual electric fuel pumps. Fuel cell. Two alternators and separate charging systems and three Optima batteries (one is for cranking only). Radiator in rear of car. Heaters in both driver's and passenger's compartments. Rear cargo rack is used often but is removeable. Dual spare tire mounts. Power steering but no power brakes (no room for a conventional power brake booser). My latest project was to install a dual Ford EDIS distributorless ignition system, and everything except the crank sensor and 36-1 toothed wheel have been installed and wired, including coils, modules, and a brand-new Megajolt E controller for laptop interface and programming of timing maps. Many EDIS spare parts are included. Also included are two new Dunlop 275/60-15 tires for the rear, mounted and balanced, and many other various spare parts. Fun to drive. Government furlough forces sale; must pay off the family car. Cash only. Located in El Paso, TX. Sorry, I cannot ship it.

Cobbled Crap, he must have been over paid to have money to waste on this vision. WOW not a good thing unless you need an engine. Might be worth the $3000 they are asking from a parts stand point.
