Description
Former National SCCA H-Production Bugeye Sprite built and driven by Jay Lutz, converted back to street legal. This car has many National SCCA wins and trips to the Run-Offs. I bought and restored as a pre-engagement present for my now wife who decided she would rather have a cool street car than a racecar. Two years spent on restoration. New roll hoop designed for Vintage racing. Cobra seats, Autometer guages, Mini Lites, big brakes, perfect vintage race 1275 Engine. Restored by Peter Morton at No Budget Racing. Too much info to list. Great racing history.
