The blue car is the one for sale. Have been building another '60 to replace the yellow car we wiped out at the '17 Turkey Trot. Should be done in a couple months. No autocrossing down here any more so don't need two cars. Have had the blue car for over 20 years and had a ball with it. It's still fast and it's still fun. Will be at Sebring next week in the blue car.

Giving up. Going to part it out and junk the chassis. Too bad as the chassis and suspension are the main features of this car. Will get a parts list going in a few weeks.

Sad to see... IIRC, this is the ex-John Stamps car that was on the Runoffs podium a few years at Road Atlanta right?
