Sorry if I missed it but when was the care actually built/modified? Since the engine was only resealed, is there any documentation that indicates the mileage on the engine that was installed? In lieu of that, any compression or leak down test completed recently?

Selling - (provided we meet reserve due to limited parking and the acquisition of a vehicle I had been chasing for quite some time. No documentation on engine mileage. The car was a five year project that was only recently completed - about 800 miles on the build. I can try to do a compression test and should have thought of that prior to listing. The listing is in the final hours, so depending on my morning I'll see what can be done. It runs absolutely fabulous. If this doesn't sell, I won't be sad as I really didn't get to enjoy it and probably will find some storage to rent for my parking situation.
