SCCA – H/Production Bug-eye

 

This car is complete as taken from the track some twenty years ago.  The car has been in storage and not been raced for many years.  The 948 engine and rib case transmission are race prepared.  The engine starts and runs well.  The head is ported, carb’s flowed and other obvious race modifications completed on the drive train and suspension. You are buying the car as shown, as is, where is.  There are five Centerline aluminum disc wheels, plus the rain tires mounted on Chevy Vega wheels.  Many race goodies included with the car including custom aluminum race parts (as shown), ram air box, front rotor air ducts, Carrera tube shocks, custom front suspension brace system and more. Also, included with loose parts is an extra 948 block, head and internals.   This car will need work but is sound.  This will make a great rally or hill climb car.  Own a piece of SCCA history with this great little Bug-eye racer.  Located in Danville, Virginia; limited transport, negotiable.
