Default NEEDING help got a question need hlep

hope that this is in the right place i just need some help and opinions I have been on our sister site ls1tech for about three to four years now but im kindda lost on this topic please point me in the right direction is this a good set up and if not why thank you so so much

To many toys and not enough time. This truck has too many extras to list. I did a frame off build in 2002. Everything in the front end was replaced from rotor to rotor. The engine is a 350 bored .060. 10-1 forged pistons. Lunati solid lift cam. Dart iron eagle angle plug heads with 2.02 1.60 swirl polished valves, crane triple valve springs, and crane 1.6 ratio roller tip rockers. The transmission is a 350 turbo with a b&m transpack shift kit and b&m 3500 holeshot stall converter. Rear end is a 10 bolt with upgrade axles, 3.73 gears and a strange mini spool. Fuel system consists of a summit fuel cell, holley red electric fuel pump, holley fuel pressure regulator, aircraft quality braided steel fuel lines, and a 750cfm holley carb. Ignition is a msd 6AL box, msd pro billet distributor, msd blaster coil, msd wires and accel shorty header plugs. Wheels are weld draglights 15x3.5 in the front and 15x10 in the rear with brand new bfg tires on the rear. It also has a harwood fiberglass cowl induction hood and a be-cool four core alumnum radiator. Honestly we spent so much money on the speed parts i ran out before i could finish the truck properly. It dosen't have a grill or front bumper, there is no carpet, and i painted it with ppg dodge viper red enamel paint because i could not afford base coat clear coat. Remember this truck was built for pro-street class so there is no heat or a/c. We took everything out to save weight. Right now the truck needs a tune-up and the fuel-cell gasket has started leaking letting a little water in the tank but this is all minor stuff that i just dont have the money 2 fix. I am willing to make price adjustments for these things. Also will consider trades on most anything. I could also possibly deliver the vehicle up to 200 miles. Please call with any questions.

what is your question? or are you trying to sell this thing? You need to post a price if you are trying to sell and I'll move it to the vehicle classifieds.

Again, what do you need help with?

Welll, We don't know what year the Chevy is but judging by the work done, NO. It's not worth it financially. However it really depends on what your wanting compared to what you have and are being offered. If you're really looking for a bronco to go mudding in then it might be worth it to you to get the chevy out of your yard. but that's not for us to decide.

Dollar for Dollar the Chevy should be worth more depending on the year and body style.

and wth are very good points? The most expensive points I know of are like 30 bucks. And that's not going to net anything to advertise about.
