Vintage Racecar Rolling Chassis, S2, Replica - No Longer For Sale

[11Budlite]

Edit - After much deliberation, we're keeping the car in the family. Sorry to those who have inquired recently.

 

I bought this rolling chassis from Automotive Restorations/Vintage Racing Services back in December of 2018. It was fabricated from original Series 2 plans with some of the typical reinforcements to strengthen the weak original design. They built it to be a track rental to be used in SVRA Group 8/BP to use a x-flow or twin cam. I had hoped to build it up as a vintage racecar but I've been satisfied doing track days in my Caterham, so I'm putting this up for sale.

Per request for brake drum weight. After a bit of research these are the drums that were drilled to 3.75" PCD to work on this chassis: https://www.thezstore.com/product/195/aluminum-rear-brake-drum-70-78-240z-260z-280z
