Much to the dismay of my wife and kids, Guac is for sale, listed on Marketplace.
It hasn't moved since the Challenge. I hate that.
I signed up for an autocross with it but then was invited to a track day with some racing friends driving their cars. Admittedly, I don't really want to sell it so it's listed for what I think is probably (quite) a high number but we'll see where this goes.

BLWS! Your fans request that you bring Guac to the 2025 party.
In reply to wvumtnbkr :
Thanks!
In reply to AngryCorvair :
Hah! I hear ya. I'm going to give it a week or two. If it doesn't sell then I'll bite the bullet, stick it somewhere and it'll be back. Probably not 2025 though.
Guac has now moved outside under a tarp and cover but it's just waiting to get ruined.
Someone buy it!
Asking price has been lowered to a more reasonable $2,800.
I still want a set of those Nardi wheels. One day....
In reply to David S. Wallens :
I had/have(?) someone lightly on the hook and told them I know someone who wants the wheels if they want some $ off. Unfortunately they want the wheels but I haven't forgotten.
No worries and thanks for the update. At least I got to see a set IRL as it’s been a minute.
I'm getting close to my lowest number of FB before I just stick it in a storage unit to come back out, likely, for the 2026 Challenge.
It's at $1,990 on FB.
I'd rather it go away so someone buy it!

Just to make you feel better...FB keeps serving your car up to me when I search vehicles. We're in the same major market so its good that FB is at least trying to find you a buyer (not me.)
In reply to John Welsh :
Oh, I know it's getting to people. The number of clicks, saves and shares is astounding.

I'm in Ohio seeing family and was browsing the local FB Marketplace, as one does, and guess what shows up? And I'll probably be passing right by on my way back to CT...
Hope you find a buyer who isn't me!

Yes. Do it.
I'm very, very convenient to the highway.

My daughter might be interested. The big issue is I'm in SW Florida. The logistics might prevent us from pulling the trigger.
In reply to DrBoost :
You shoulda caught me while it was in Florida!
I'm very nearing the point of keeping it. Even with the bargain basement price I'm dealing with all sorts of jokers on FB. There is one guy that apparently owns a previous Challenge car that seems like he'll actually buy it but my daughter continues to give me sad faces every time I talk about selling it.
In reply to AxeHealey :
That's my co-driver. We've been campaigning the Zoomboni for a couple of years and are interested in taking the Guac time trialing.
And gone.
My daughter full on broke down yesterday morning when I told her Guac was leaving. She was very happy to hear it's keeping it's name and will keep racing.
In reply to AxeHealey :
When Lil Stampie was 4 I sold my 60 Cadillac. I thought he would love seeing the tow truck load it up so I took him out there. He cried his eyes out the whole time because the Caddy was leaving. I felt like a horrible Dad. I think he's over it now so it'll get better.
Yeah, glad to hear it's going to a good home.
In reply to Stampie :
She hasn't mentioned it today so...
In reply to David S. Wallens :
I did offer to give a discount on the car to bring their own wheels but, alas, they wanted the hole package. Can't blame them.
