Vehicle Detail

I Have lowered the price of the auction for the last day. We need to get our workshop going and our new car out to the public, take this opportunity and get this amazing car.Hello, this auction is for a handmade vintage racer body and chassis only. Please read the full description and photos, feel free to ask any questions. This car is the best option for running some of the vintage races with the best ratio of fun to cost. I only sell what I make, that way you decide how much you want to spend on the engine, transmission, and other options. Delivery time is four months. The car will be custom built and fit for you, with several options available. Two place, or mono posto, that is also your choice. The car will be hand built by myself, and my assistants in our small shop in Bogota, Colombia. I not a parts salesman, I am a car builder, so I will not sell any of the parts required to complete the car, but I will guide you to the right vendors. I will also build a parts list with you. I want to make clear that although I won’t be making any money off these parts, since you will be buying them directly, I will work with you throughout the process. If you want me to assemble the car, I can do it here or in the USA for you at an additional cost. The car in the photographs is my first prototype, the car you will be purchasing will be built using our new buck, with a similar shape but better details. The new buck is slightly more similar to the Porsche 550, but is still different enough not to be a replica. Please see attached photos. This is a Porsche inspired car, not a replica. About the body: The handmade body will be shaped out of 1.5mm aluminum, shaped using an English wheel and gas (oxy/acetylene) welded. The new car has a bonnet and opening rear. The aluminum seats are included, upholstered in leather on the color of your choice About the chassis: The chassis is TIG welded mild steel, in a shape similar to the Porsche RSK, but using a rear suspension derived from the Formula Vee racers. This suspension has proven itself during decades of racing and is lighter and stronger than the original Porsche/VW. The chassis includes your choice of integral roll bar or none. What is included: The alloy body, painted or polished. with all necessary parts to be attached to the chassis. The chassis, with all brackets and supports. The seats for the car. The stainless steel fuel tank is also included in the price. What is not included: Rear shock, engine, transmission, wheels, steering wheel, pedals, front suspension, brakes, steering box, and instruments. Everything else needed to complete the car. About the engine options: With the right vintage engine and gearbox this car can race most of the vintage race events around the world. Yes, it is not a four million dollar Porsche 550, but you will have just as much fun driving it as the Porsche. Porsche 912 or VW engines and gearboxes can be installed. You choose how much you want to spend. My opinion is that a 2000cc VW engine is the best option. About delivery: I will deliver the car to you. That means I will take care of the transportation and import to the USA. But It will be imported as parts. I am not a lawyer, so I will not register the car for you, or assume any liability on its use as a vehicle. The car has been proven at local events. You will have as much fun driving it as I have building them. Please contact me for any additional info.
