I really hate even listing my car here and will catch a lot of flack for doing this, but business has been off 60% with my company and I have to start looking to raise some captial for two new projects. No rush, but have to consider all my options.
This Marauder is certainly one of a kind. Only 41K on her with 5K on the built motor. More than $90K invested in this car since I bought it off the showroom floor, July 3, 2004. Everything has been done right. Nothing spared. Have a complete build sheet I can e-mail for those seriously interested in this Marauder. Featured in Muscle Mustangs & Fast Fords April 2009 issue, "Luxuary Land Missle."

Interior has been upgraded with a matching custom intregal roll bar and makes full use of unobstructured rear seat access. Car puts down 641 RWHP on a 93 octane tune. Has a switch w/led light on the dash for switching from computer with 93 Octane tune, to C-16 Race w/o nitrous and a C-16 w/175 shot, putting down 822 RWHP. Car has run 4 consistant 10.4 et @ 135.mph before retiiring her from the track. She drives smooth as silk on the road with 17-18 mpg on the highway and 10-12 mpg on the street. With the Nitto drag radials and putting the hammer down there has been "nothing yet" that will get close to this car. (not that I advocate street racing;)) I drive this car every week for a few miles to cruise nights and local events to keep her fresh.

Asking price is $40K or best reasonable offer. Granted a lot of money, but also a lot of car. If she doesn't sell, she doesn't sell. No one is going to steal this car. Also going to put up my custom 08 Bullitt up for sale probably as well. Then later build myself another Marauder from frame up :D. Figured I would come here first to our site to offer this car to an enthusiast.

My wife is a real sweetheart. I think her and Tom are talking on the phone now. I have an idea. We all helped a fellow Marauder owner rebuild his Marauder, you guys can give me some donations and I will buy it. I will put a plaque up with all the names of the people giving donations. Of course I will keep it in New Orleans in a good garage. I just finished the garage. It even has a SB floor. JOKING on the donations, don't want a bunch of you guys and gals wanting to drive it.

A serious build not only takes lots of time but as you know lots of money. In fact in my case, far more than the price of the car with the right components. Thus my asking price. I hear you on your position with a reasonable offer. This can be discussed on a PM or by phone. But I will tell you., this car is close to being sold to a good friend. Just awaiting some further confirmation.
