I'm selling the project due to limited funds. i go to college and have been working on this project for over 6 months now. School at mt. sac starts

Hope this sums everything up and answers your questions. The project was really fun to do. it was however my first major mechanical project and there
are probably many things that can be improved upon. but i am proud of the overall performance i got out of the car. i invested over $6000 and
countless hours working on the project. i would really like to give it to someone who can finish the project and actually drive it, because i just
cant afford to. Im willing to take any reasonable offer at the moment. I CANNOT PART THE CAR OUT AT THE MOMENT UNLESS A PURCHASE OF $3500 OR MORE
WORTH OF PARTS IS MADE!! sorry i really need the money.
thanks,
vince
