'66 pre-airflow project
Posted: Tue Nov 21, 2017 9:50 pm
I bought this car in spring with the idea of doing a mechanical restoration and leaving the body as is. But in the months since it arrived, I've adjusted the passenger door and purchased a set of keys. I have two other needy vintage cars, a 5-year-old, and little time to play in the garage. So this one should go.
It's a '66 FHC (3223552) that I bought from the estate of SCCA driver Bud Grocki in Massachusetts. He bought the car new, and raced it extensively in the Solo II class, culminating in winning the '73 New England Division Solo II Championship and placing third in the national championship that year. The car comes with lots of racing and other documentation and memorabilia, including time sheets, photographs, multiple trophies and cups, dash plaques from Watkins Glen and other tracks, Grocki's racing jackets and a speeding ticket.
Extras--
Raid and OEM wood steering wheel.
