Re: Took some glamour pics of the T/A

Very nice. How long have you been working on it? And what transmission are you using with it?

When I saw "LT5" in your first sentence, I wondered if it might be the new supercharged LT5, but I was hoping it would be this one, so I scrolled down the page very slowly to build up the suspense.

There have been two LT5s on ebay for quite a while now, and they have a lot of watchers. Thought this might be one of them, but they're both still listed. AND Hawk's has added a new listing on ebay for an LT5, so there are three listings now. The one Hawk's has for sale is nearly brand new and a lot more expensive than the other two listings, of course.
