Current owner purchased the car in March of 2001 in Denver CO. with 68,000 miles. 3R Automotive of Englewood, CO. installed the roll bar, fuel cell and race seat in order to attend DE and vintage race events. Also replaced at this mileage were the front and rear shocks with Koni shocks, new SS brake hoses, lower ball joints and upgraded turbo tie rods. The car was run at only 3 SCCA vintageevents and a fewvarious Porsche DE events. All other aspects of the car were kept stock in order to also be able to drive on the street. This is not a race car but a street car with a few features to make it legal for vintage and DE events.

Driving the engine rev's smoothly and pulls as would be expected. The transmission shifts smoothly up and down through the gears.
