$10,700 OBO Read below for NEW Lowered Price

I'm selling my 1976 914 V-8 conversion car due to military move in April. All the parts are from Renegade and the car was assembled at their shop in Vegas. The car no longer has the EFI that you see in the pictures or the high performance axels but everything else you see goes with the car (does have stock axels). I will forget something but the basics are these (stream of consciousness and I know I've forgotten much so just ask if you have questions). I couldn't get any of the pictures to load here so you can go to the following link and see all of them. The pics of the car in the driveway are pre-converstion. There are some of the actual conversion process and the ones in the garage are of the car last week.

Original 65,000 mile chasis and interior (in excellent condition).
Chevy 327 V-8 (minus intake maifold, carb, distributor, and fuel pump)
Renegade conversion transmission (1st gear removed, taller 4th and 5th gear).
NEW in box aluminum radiator (original sprung leak and was warrantied)
Renegade 5 lug conversion suspension with Renegade Big Red Brakes and 911 vented rotors.
911 SC front suspension with vented rotors all the way around. All the suspension parts were powdercoated and completely rebuilt from bearings to bushing to nuts and bolts.
All new parts.
A/C (blew cold on trip across country)
Heat
Speedometer converted for V-8.
New tires.
NO RUST (original battery tray as you can see from pictures). I have pictures of the paint work done on the car more than
10 years ago and it still looks phenominal. There are a couple spots but you can see it still looks great.
Cooling system is all Renegade.
All parts for the conversion are Renegade parts and the conversion was done in their shop in Las Vegas.
Aluminum Edelbrock heads.
Complete Renegade engine conversion parts.
Renegade headers and dual exhaust with new mufflers.

I have more than $25,000 (parts and labor) in this car and that doesn't include the car itself. The first test drive after the conversion the car did 120mph as if it was standing still. Would have gone faster with NO Problem but didn't want to stress a brand new engine. I drove it from Vegas to VA (2500 miles in two and a half days) prior to my Iraq deployment and garaged it. The conversion was completed in Aug of 08 and I deployed in Sept. The problem was Renegade was never able to get the EFI properly dialed in so I pulled it and got rid of it. I haven't had time to replace the intake system and get it back on the road. I was in the process of pulling the motor when my orders arrived. Now I have to move and am upside down in my house and need funds quickly so the car must go. Car is garaged but can easily be trailered to a new home. As you can see from the pictures there is NO rust on this car. It is extremely solid and only needs intake manifold, carb, and fuel pump for the engine. Engine ran cold (temp in the green) all the way across country as well. Everything is here and anyone with some basic engine experience and time can get it back on the road fairly quickly. It's a great car and I hate to part with it but my move and family come first. Please ask questions and I'll work on arranging travel for the next owner. I'll be glad to take pictures of any part of the car you'd like to see and I've also included a few pics from the build in Vegas. I have to emphasis that this isn't a project car. Everything you need (except for what's listed above) is here to put the car back on the road. This isn't a garage queen. I am going to continue to work to get it running again and back on the road so that I can raise the price on the car. Standing by for questions and comments.
