other Square taillight car at Barrett-Jackson

[LJtii]

Here are a few photos of the 2002 that was in the vendor displays at the recent Barrett Jackson auction in Scottsdale, AZ. It was a nicely-done car which wasn't for sale but was displayed to highlight the audio system installed in it.

Looks like the Clarion car. I really like what they did with it.

What do you think a complete rebuild of this caliber would go for? It's immaculate.

I know what it cost, but it will be going up for sale at Barrett-Jackson in Florida.  Proceeds going to charity, should be interesting.

I like it, but someone needs to adjust the handbrake (and put the 2002 on in)

I've driven this car for about 20 minutes, as part of a roundel article I was apart of. 

 

 

It's an aesthetically pleasing car.

What you don't say actually says a lot.

It handles great to .... after I removed somebody's bad camber plate installation (which they put on after I originally did the suspension) and a couple other looked over things underneath.  

 

Not a great amount of power given what it's lugging around but it's not a car I can compare to my own given the different build premise.  Late model heavier car with larger wheels is not lighter body early roundie running 13's/14's.

Late or early. ..neither are helped by 400lbs of sound deadening and audio equipment. ..

So true mlytle...That's got to be close to a 3,000 lb car! It sure is purty and all looks very nicely executed...but all that weight seems incongruous with the whole '02 concept of a quick, lightweight driver's machine.

It's amazing, in either my stock tii or the M2, I INSTANTLY notice the difference in acceleration with just one large passenger in the front seat...but when you consider that a 200 lb person represents nearly 10% of a stock '02s weight, perhaps that's not so amazing after all...

I hear ya. As much as I enjoy teaching and taking riders on track, no matter how small they are, I can feel it in every brake zone, turn, and straight......

Heck, even the 35lb difference between full and half tank of fuel is noticeable.
