Wood Bros pit practice car.......
This car was originally prepared by the Wood Bros. & driven by Elliot Sadler in NASCAR Cup competition. It has a RHE(Ronnie Hopkins) chassis. The car was rebodied with a 1st gen COT body & used by the team for pit stop practice. It has a GM crate engine & TH350 trans. I believe that it is the 290hp/350ci model. The vehicle runs & drives. At some point the car was somewhat updated to some of the 2nd gen COT dimensions. The car has some modifications to facilitate longevity such as reinforced fender wells etc.
As would be expected from a professional race team, the car was well maintained & is in excellent condition. The chassis has not been modified & could be easily certified for SCCA & NASA road racing competition for example. Although it has a offset chassis intended for circle track applications, the ft suspension has been changed to facilitate road racing. While working at Shaver Motorsports in Charlotte, NC, we campaigned a identical chassis with excellent results.
The car can be easily updated with a straight up clip at the customers request & expense.
The drivetrain can also be easily updated for competition use at the buyers expense.
For competition use, all of the Safety items would have to be updated(seat belts fuel cell etc). I have most of the parts to convert it to manual trans.
The car would also be great for a variety of promotional purposes.
I took it to Goodguys Charlotte Auto-X last fall & had a blast.
I have considered adding a second seat & safety items etc. to make the car street legal. I have information on how to do this in NC.
I can provide additional technical information & photographs, I do not have time to check email daily, so please be patient with me.
Appointments to view the vehicle, located in Charlotte, NC can be arranged.
I will be happy to assist buyer with shipping.
$9500 OBO as-is where-is. will consider selling it in any level of completion. I have access to pro shops for updating.
thanks for looking
