Description
Just as the professional preparation of this beautiful Datsun racer was completed an unanticipated change in its owner's priorities has forced its reluctant sale. Its builders' thorough knowledge and skill is amply reflected by their use of top-quality parts and superb racecraft. Fully sorted and truly ready to race, this car will provide its new owner with an economical and competitive package for vintage, club and endurance racing.
History
SCCA logbook reflects an impressive record dating from 1997. The car is currently being raced by its rookie owner on the west coast with VARA in their CP3-M class for production cars.
