Rare TVR Grantura 1800S - only 78 built. Restored 2000-2004 and built to Rocky Mtn. Vintage Racing specs (1972 SCCA PCS & GCR). Suspension extensively tuned for neutral to slight understeer, bump steered, very easy and predictable to drive. Logbooks clean (no deficiencies). Engine built by Dave Headley @ Fab-Tek; high output race engine good to 8000 rpm. Light weight and great brakes make this easy to drive hard into a corner. Excels on short, tight tracks.
