March 82C Indycar CART#288, USAC#1690, original in every detail, including Turbocharged DFX with zero miles since rebuild, Weisman 5 speed transaxle and perfect chassis and body. Set up for road racing, it comes with mounted wets and spare ratios. The car is race ready, has a new fuel cell, and must be one of the best early 80's Indycars available today.
