We've moved, but the car is still available for sale. Now in storage here in Las Vegas.

We're moving, and I can't take my project car with us. The 62 Lancer GT is one of the rarer mopar models. I've started this one, but can't finish it. The engine was rebuilt just before I got it. The body is straight with only a little bit of tinworm on the rocker panels. If you want a car that...
