Put headlights, tail lights, turn signals, and mirrors on it and register it as a kit car. There is a guy up in Mooresville with a streat legal sprint car with a rx7 motor in it.

There is a guy up in Mooresville with a streat legal sprint car with a rx7 motor in it.Sprint cars weren't ever production vehicles but Legends began their life as one so should just have to register it as its donor vehicle, whether it's a 1937 Dodge, Chevy, Ford, or whatever. Vehicles Over 25 years old don't need a title anyways so who cares if it was a race car at one point, just need a VIN :tongue:

There is a guy up in Mooresville with a streat legal sprint car with a rx7 motor in it.You're right, they're tube frame with a fiberglass body now so they would need to be registered as a kit car, the old ones i've seen were chopped up originals but they're nearly impossible to find...

Chassis brand new is $1,400

$1,000 or less will get you all the new body panels..

Personally I'd rather get a $4000 used one to rebuild and sell the 1200cc Yamaha engine to put in the Hayabusa...then look for sponsors on a turbo kit :D

Oler than 1952 you dont need a title and barely need a vin. If its inspected as a 52 or older without any of that it will just be inspected for safety and then you get a pink slip to register it.

220 bucks and you can make any old car street legal with the right safety stuff.

Talk to this guy for more info:
