damn chris i should have looked closer, i saw the "big brake pedal" and i saw the black area in between in and the metal on the other side and though it was 2 separate pedals and not just a black spot or glare on the brake pedal,your right though looking at the motor i dont see a master cylinder either. i guess i should have looked closer

SO WTH did happen to the manual conversion they were doing in 2008? think im gonna email them and ask. BTW they arent the original owners, in the first link i provided they said they just recently got the car so i guess they bought it from the people who used to race it for lexus corp

A great piece of GS history!

Brian, This is actually a different car at least I think its a different car. There were two of these. This one belongs to Chuck Goldsborough. He wanted to restore it, but never got to it and now has more projects than he wants to deal with. So, I'm selling this car for him.

Any interest?


Bill


No more than a pipe dream...saw it and was kind of curious about it.you sure this is a different car?


brian


No I am not positive. I believe there were two but there may have been three. This one still runs great! Thanks for the interest.

Bill
