1985 SCCA ITC AMC/Renault Encore (crash damage)
LeMons/ChumpCar - SCCA IT – NASA PT
$500
I raced this car at Waterford Hills in 2000 through 2002, with decent success (typically third or fourth place finishes). It makes good power (it’s all relative, this is an ITC car) and handles great. There is some rust in the rear fender wells and driver floor that was (more or less) repaired by previous owner. Left side crashed squarely into concrete wall in its last race (September 2002). I haven’t looked too closely at it since the accident, but I know the front subframe, LF A-arm and strut are damaged and door does not fit properly. Car could be repaired and returned to the track (SCCA IT, NASA, LeMons or ChumpCar) or stripped of parts to sell off and/or complete the Alliance.
