underdog1495 Posted January 27, 2019 Author Share Posted January 27, 2019 Someone made me an offer to sell the body. I laughed at their offer, I don't think people realize the cost it takes. They have since made 2-3 offers. The last one I said ok as I'd be foolish not to do it and I'll just start another one. He gave me a substantial down payment of 80%(which covers my time/material into it). I've been waiting for the rest of the money for several weeks now and no word from him. So that's the main reason I haven't been doing anything. I am super busy with my 1:1 Malibu build as well, so I really wouldn't have gotten far on this model to be honest. Right now I DO have time to build as I'm waiting on a billet intake to finish up and tieing up loose ends on the chassis build I don't expect the Malibu home for a couple months. I'm going to try and get ahold of him yet again today and find out what's going on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackbeard Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 I might be interested in the 55 chevy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
underdog1495 Posted January 28, 2019 Author Share Posted January 28, 2019 (edited) Ok I got ahold of him. Apparently the dems in New York passed a new bill or something which directly affected this guys job and he was laid off on Friday. He has asked for his money back which I gladly sent to him right away. That all said, The 1/8 TDR Nova is staying put and I need to get my butmoving on it now.

I'm so busy building my 1:1 Malibu right now I just do not have any extra time. My 1:1 Belair I did get that project done, new carb and fuel pump and plumbing. I'm ashamed this project Nova has been stalled out for so long, I was in my hobby room last night an there it sits all cool looking, LOL. You'll be the first to know when I get my butt in there and notch some brass for chassis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been out of drag racing for 15 years and prices are 2.5-3x more than they were in 2003. Unbelievable, no wonder no kids are into drag racing and hardly anyone is building cars anymore. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
