1966 Austin Healy 3000 Mark 3

1966 Austin Healy 3000, Mark 3.

On and off this car has been associated with VSCDA for almost 20 years. It has an annual tech sticker as of the Elkhart Lake Vintage Festival in 2024. It is a very fun right hand drive car with the 3.5 aluminum V-8 Rover/Buick motor and a T-10 4 speed transmission. The car is pretty well sorted and ready to race. I have extensive documentation. There is only 1 race weekend on a fresh build. I started and will stay in Formula Vees.

1984 Argo Camel GT series racecar

Restored GTP/Camel Lights car with history from the pinnacle era of sportscar racing. Fast and looks great. Major restoration 2018-2024. Ready to go in current GTP type configuration with fresh Buick V6 racing engine, many new parts, upgrades, and a LOT of spares. Inquire through VSCDA or email me bobpor87@gmail.com for extensive additional information- racing history, more car photos, new parts installed, spares/accessories photos, specs, schematics, systems diagrams, ACCEL tuning software and laptop.

GO FASTER NEXT YEAR… A good value for the price – make an offer.      Asking $142,000.

Race in VSCDA Group 9 or other vintage series in this GTP/Camel Lights racecar. Designed and built by Jo Marquart (founder of Anglia Cars LTD, England, also former McLaren F1 Chief Designer). This chassis 102 ran 10 Camel GTP races in 1984-85 including the 24 Hours of Daytona, with best GTP finish 4th.  It was then converted to a Camel Lights spec and did 10 more races through 1985 finishing 1st at Watkins Glen and 1st at Laguna Seca. The car was driven by Charles Morgan, Bill Alsup, Whitney Ganz and later owned by HANS device co-developer and Argo Camel Lights champion Jim Downing. Take it vintage racing or just be the fast guy at track day events.  The cockpit fits my 6’1” 180# frame.
