I have an oppt to buy a really nice street Porsche and am wondering what my race car would go for these days.
Its the former Grantsfo pirate ship... been sitting here unused for the last 2 years... and I've used it twice... Yeah, I know. Here's a short list of things: '74 low mile chassis FG trunks, bumpers, and flares 5-6 year old 2.5 purpose built /6 motor, carb, twin plug LSD transmission 5 lug / full suspension Cage Kirkley seat 2 sets of wheels Known issues: LSD slips Engine smokes after sitting long periods Carbs likely need cleaning Package would include nice Carson steel open deck trailer. What's it worth? Attached thumbnail(s) |

Car looks great!Poor market to sell unless you need the cash or the other car that you mentioned.Good buyers market.The tires you mentioned above are all radials except for the cantilever GY.They all (the radials) require more camber -2 Plus bordering on 3.The cantilevers like closer to one degree.In our testing, our cars like the bias ply tires with less negative camber.Our car is 1900lb and we are lighter sprung than the above mentioned figures.The ability to Match a car to your paticular driving style-and fine tune as courses require-seems more important .I've read a lot of conflicting setups on this forum-Everybody justifies their paticular setup and expense.There is no replacement for seat time.J Jackson
