Completely legal for all vintage racing sanctions. Very good condition. Has seen 5 weekends of racing since build. Well tested, will not be a maintenance headache at the track. Would be race ready with new tires and brakes all the way around. Body professionally stitch welded with fender flares done by Bob Hill, professional race car builder. Suspension and rear axle assembly done by EPS Walt Hane/Chip Hane. Engine built by Ridge Reamer. Dynoed and tuned by EPS. Interior rollcage done by professional rollcage builder in Denver.


History

Purchased chassis from Bob Hill in 2001 and began building as a race car to compete with local vintage racing clubs. Since build, I had raced a couple of weekends a year in 2003 and 2004. Have been midpack to front-pack runner, but I generally take it easy compared to the front-running drivers. The car has been at home in the shop since 2004 simply due to competing priorities.

Competition History

Historically a mid-pack runner with me driving. Car certainly was built with the potential to lead with a competitive driver.
