1969 Vintage Corvette Race Car
This 1969 Vintage Corvette Race Car is your ticket into any vintage race. This vintage racer could easily be a SVRA group 6 Medallion car withproven history going back to 1981 when it was raced by Doug Rippiein the Trans-Am and IMSA series. Quite a few signs point to the car having earlier race history, but so far I have been unable to prove ownership beyond Trans-Am racer Steve Strandemo. This car comes with lots of documentation, photographs and even video taken at Brainerd 1980/81. Sadly, the original log book is no longer with the car.
Known Drivers:Steve Strandemo, Doug Rippie, Marshal Kirkoff, Bruce Gunderson, Darwin Bosell
Condition: This vintage Corvette race car does not show signs of ever being wrecked or significantly damaged. The car is not perfect but shows well and is capable of running with the front of the pack. The car comes with lots of spares including: 2 spare sets of rims, 2 scuffed in sets of tires, multiple rear ends set for various tracks, and many many miscellaneousparts. New radiator, new brake pads, fluid...The engine is leaking a little of oil. I am not a mechanic, but I believe that it is leaking from the rear main seal. While concentratingon my other project, I have not fixed this leak. Currently the car is running the 1981 rear clip, but the earlier C3 coupe rear shown in the race images above is included with the sale. Please note, the earlier rear end has some minor damage. Jerico 4 speed transmission shifts properly.
Reason For Selling: I am in the middle of restoring another significant Corvette Race Car. I only have so much garage space and too many cars.
