    biggest reason is the other guy put in a cage, i delivered pizzas in a car with a cage for a year and i swore id never have a street car with a cage... and the car wont ever be what i wanted it to be when i origionaly owned it, thats the problem with getting rid of your shit then getting it back later

    if you like the car, wouldn't it be easier to cut the cage out or turn the cage into a 5 point cage with removable drivers door bar? I wouldn't think you could get your money back out of it after spending that much time on the paint work.

    You shouldn't have a problem getting $6500 out of it. Slap it up on ebay with a dyno sheet and it's as good as sold.

    What's the paint code? Looks like Ford Dark Shadow Grey, I'm a big fan of grey cars.
