Some of you may not know my car & some do. car is a fully built 426 done the right way and tuned by 1 of the best. It is also posted it in a thread in the for sale forum.
Just really need the car sold asap as my life has changed and I need the money. 10k miles on the car. 2k or less miles on the block and less than 500 miles on the new Thitek heads. 1200rwhp cable of high 8’s all day. I see 2017 challengers with 25k plus miles with mods sellling for 65K in great condition.
Just a little advice
Thx everyone! Aka Stinkeye/ Marc W can vouch for my car.

James. You really need to post up detailed pics and related mod info. Especially the motor. The car is one of a kind and unlike most modded cars, everything is in like new condition. Potential buyer needs to picture spending $70k in mods and then selling the car without putting any use on it. This circumstance is a shame. I can vouch for it being one of the most outstanding builds that are honestly streetable and just a jaw dropper.

At least list the big bullet points, most anybody who is going to be a buyer will know the little shit, or at least be (hopefully) smart enough to ask.

Bro most likely the next owner will live really FAR away..... Without 10-20 detailed pics and very detailed info on the car no one is buying that. ALL ppl have is the pics and info u list. Most ppl are not getting on a plane to come look at ur car.

Maybe if they decide they really want it they will but unless u post extremely detailed pics and info ull get nothing!

Detailed ads sell cars.

A couple I still have because they were too beautiful to delete. You haven't heard the best sounding Hellcat until you listen to this cogged Maggie. My Whipple sounds like shit compared to this guy. IMG_9821.jpeg IMG_9819.jpeg IMG_9818.jpeg

I’m going to chime in on this for James. He doesn’t post here much anymore because he’s got two small kids to take care of and a full time/overtime job. This has been his pride and joy for a few years now. I watched most of it being built and contributed parts and pieces to help him with the build as my car moved from one phase to another. It has a Alex Jones build forged stroker short block. Manley crank, Manley pro series I-beam rods and Diamond pistons. Billet mains and ARP hardware (including the $2000 625 head studs). Thitek Bear Cylinder Heads with upgraded Inconal valves. Cam is a BBP Comp. Blower is a ported 2.6 Magnuson with the overdrive cog set and the high dollar Big John dual idler. Fore triple pump with ID 1700’s. I forget which converter he went to but not stock. Full AAD rear with that Carlyle billet spindle 15” conversion out of my car. To show you the level this thing is built to…. Those are real Billet Specialties 15” beadlocks. That is not a production wheel. He had them specially made instead of using cheap ass Welds. One last thing…. That is a new mat black wrap on top of black paint. I think he said that was $7000. I generally would advise being very careful buying a modded car. This thing I would buy in a second if not for every penny I have being locked down by my thing. While James has always wanted to get to the track, it never happened. I have no doubt it is high eight second capable.

This is valuable, to have a credible vetting.

Thanks Marc for the kind words. I will do my best to add more in detail. Lol don’t forget the titanium intake valves.

Yeah. And the year it took you to get those things. I know what little I said doesn’t even start to cover all of the stuff and the labor it took to put everything together. There’s not a more high end build out there. Something like what.. 3 plus years? All I got to say is whoever is lucky enough to get this car, better not be a asshole. Actually they already will be one for just being so lucky 😡

Beautiful, but how are these CA cars dealing with smog? It was a pain when I modified my 1999 Dakota RT and CA has only gotten worse.

This sounds and looks like an unreal car. If I wasn't stuck up here in Canada I'd be wiring money and coming down to get it.

Who manufactures these fine pieces?
Carlyle. They got bought out by BMR. The reason for these was to eliminate the need to grind down the stock spindle attachment points. Mainly the swaybar. My stock spindle had to be ground down to clear the Billet Specialties 15” wheels to the point of not being safe at 1200+ whp. I don’t know if BMR continues to sell these. AAD came up with a link design (much less expensive) that attaches differently to the stock spindle, making these not necessary.
