Description:
This is an exceptionally well preserved original condition car. It had a complete frame up rebuild in 1996
by TCE (Todd Cook). There was no SCCA number until the current owner had it stamped in 1997. It has had a
total of 14 races since rebuild, at which time it was upgraded to current SCCA requirements; front roll hoop,
side braces, double side inner panels, separate water lines from radiators, all of which makes the car safer.
The upgrading work was tastefully done preserving original car appearance.
