Red/White. 0 miles.. Race ready 300hp, 2000lb, 3ltr in a 3.2 case, custom Dawe 12 plug race engine with 3 hrs, POM's, 2 sets ignition (electromotive and COP), Pete Weber tuned exhaust (90bbs), Velios 915 trans with custom gears (matched to power curve), hydraulic clutch, EPR race suspension, big brakes, 2 sets Pano 3-piece wheels, gusseted cage.

Typing it out, it seems the parts are work more than the price alone....odd
I wrote the seller to see if it's still available. I never planned on a racecar, but maybe if it's a good one me and my brother may take that leap (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I know the car, and the seller a bit as well. It's a very nice racecar, and damn fast. I ran with him at Lime Rock a few years ago. It's a good deal if you're looking for a car like that. Apparently people these days want to put that kind of money toward a cup car or a cayman build.

Wasn't Cafro (the owner) on one of these forums for a while? Heck, it might have even been back on Rennlist or Pphiles...

Is this Neil Cawley, RHD green car? He was selling one On a Racing Board That Shall not Be Linked To for $30k and not getting bites. He's looking to build a P2 sports racer.

Seems like a nice car, I was very interested but I need another race car like I need a hole in my head.

JmuRiz-

We bought this car and shipped it west. It has a very well built chassis with lots of nice parts. Engine starts right up and sounds sweet. We haven't taken it to the track yet and will need to change to a wider seat before we do. We've got a bunch of 911 projects going now and a couple racecars, so if you are seriously interested in buying still send me a pm or email.

Dave took a beating on that sale.
It took a long time to sell and he didn't get anywhere close to his starting price.
He would have been better off to part it out.
Race cars are real hard to sell.

Race cars are real hard to sell.

Are there certain websites that a deal like this would typically be posted so it might align with a grew month I may be having?

It was advertised in multiple locations over the last couple of years.
