This car doesn’t have windshield wipers, heater, or air conditioning. It’s not a race car but was built to be a street driven vehicle. It only has about 600 miles on her since it was redone. It’s a brand new car and the only thing I didn’t change was the exterior paint and glass. Car is currently registered and titled in California. I love this car and have invested so much time and money into her but unfortunately life threw me a curve ball. This car is set up on E85 but could run on pump gas if you would prefer to run it that way. Car is sold As Is with no warranties implied, shipping to be paid by the buyer.
