It's with a heavy heart I put the Birkin up for sale. If I had a bigger garage I would not be making this post but it's time for the next phase of my car addiction. I'm asking $45,000.

Custom Full Cage built by Hank Moore at Advanced Auto Fabrication in Spokane, WA. The TIG welds are beautiful. Hank is very well know in the BMW world for creating competitive race cars.

Painted Lotus Graphite Gray with Lotus British racing Green Stripe

Setup for 6 point harnesses but 4 point will be included with the car

I'm sure I'm missing a lot but this is the good stuff.

 

 

Let me know if you or anyone is interested. It's a hell of a fun car and I am wishing I had room to keep it.

 

 

The photos are of the various trims the car could be in. If you'd like anything specific, let me know.

Sorry papak, I don't remember off hand. I think it was this one. https://www.aerodynamix.co.uk/shop/exterior/high-level-aero-screen-luego-viento-carbon/ I took measurements and I found something that was close enough and it worked out very well.

SOLD. It's a sad and happy day.
