A 4spd, SCJ drag pak, convertible car will command that kind of money all day long. Unfortunately, this specific car has had some "modifications"

Its unusual to see one being sold.

For those of us that have been around a while seeing the sellers name  http://www.telstarmotors.com lets one know what to expect as far as correctness and quality. At least those that have inspected and or judged his restorations. ::)

He was the one that adv a 5.00 hr shop rate which was crazy cheap 25/30 years ago . The catch was the hourly rate clock started when you dropped the car off and ran non stop 24/7 throughout the restoration. At least that is what several customers have told me over the years.

Something looks very wrong in these two pictures and I don't mean the terrible historic detailing. The red flag is at full mast.

Hint, it is as it relates to a CJ or SCJ 4 speed. ;)

No staggered shocks and the cut out for center exhaust collector should not be all the way to bottom of valance.  At least it isn't on my Shelby.
