SOLD SOLD SOLD

I've spent the last 4 years building Rocinante, and it has been an amazing dual purpose street/track car. Alas, my track ambitions include racing and I don't want to trash this car up with full cage etc., so I'm going to sell and replace it with full racecar build.

Super clean, dead reliable, and ready to give someone else a million smiles. Drive it on the country roads. Drive it to the track and humiliate some Porsches and Mustangs, then drive it home.

Great car, great seller. I'd buy this car if I didn't already have two turbo Miatas. GLWS!

Does this car have A/C? I'm guessing not based on the fan ****, but just wanting to clarify.

Schroedinger

It was a base model from the factory, so no A/C, power steering, or power windows.

An updated interior photo. You can just see the subwoofer enclosure under the passenger floor mat. I still have the driver side door handle, just took it off because I'm tall and it gives me more leg room.
