Description
This car was built to race "Vintage" with VSCDA and Midwestern Council in 2003. She was purchased in pieces after sitting in the preverbial barn for many years. Every moving part has been gone through and either replaced or refurbished. Full roll cage, 7pt w/front hoop and removable forward support. Last raced in June of 2007 - still race ready! The headlights, horn, and turnsignals still work on this TR - I keep it licensed as an antique vehicle.
