Stoffregen Motorsports Posted September 9 Report Share Posted September 9 (edited) I know it should be in the classifieds, but I want to get the word out. We were going to build it as a 2.5 TA race car, but my heart is jut not in it. I want to build a vintage Jag instead. PM me, find me on Instagram, call me if you already have my number.

yenpit Posted September 9 Report Share Posted September 9 What Jaguar might be in the plan?? FYI Bill Terry of Terry's Jaguar/Terry Tuff Engines finally retired, his engine building service was acquired by Muncie Imports, who have been around for decades themselves! I crewed for Bill & Trent, throughout the 1990's! 😎 1 Quote Link to comment
Stoffregen Motorsports Posted September 9 Author Report Share Posted September 9 I remember you telling me that. I checked him out and he built some pretty nice cars. I would love to build either an E type or an XK120. There's a 140 for sale right now that is not too expensive. 1 Quote Link to comment
yenpit Posted September 9 Report Share Posted September 9 Is the XK140 on an auction or outright price? If you acquire it, my buddy David Hinton (current HSR president) at Heritage Motorsports in FL, would be THE MAN 💩 for you to call, for USED parts, race parts, parts suggestions & advice! David was in our Terry's group in the 1990's, still has his XK120 Coupe that he raced back then, now fully restored! He now owns/operates Heritage Motorsports! I usually see him at Road America...................oh the stories of debauchery, David, Trent & me, from the 1990's!!!!!! 😝🤣 If you decide on an XKE, Larry Ligas at Predator Racing, also in FL!! Same.................Larry was also in the Terry's group, but he "behaved" himself, even back then! Did you see the 5300 mile (you read that correctly), unmolested, unrestored 1969 S2 on BAT.............$276k? Just sold yesterday! It was spectacular!! 1 Quote Link to comment
Stoffregen Motorsports Posted September 9 Author Report Share Posted September 9 No, I was watching Goodwood all day yesterday. Jimmy Johnson and Dario Franchitti really put that Aston Martin through hell and back. 1 hour ago, yenpit said: Did you see the 5300 mile (you read that correctly), unmolested, unrestored 1969 S2 on BAT.............$276k?

BRG with sage green interior 😎 I put the word out to a couple friends yesterday and already found three viable cars. A Lotus Cortina, an Alfa GTV and a TVR Griffith 200. The Cortina and Griffith may come as a package deal, though I'm not a huge fan of any TVR, and the Alfa is already a race car, so it could be transformed easily. 1 Quote Link to comment

My brother really would like to drive a "saloon" car, and we like the group we run with. Both the GTV and the Cortina would run in our group 2. Quote Link to comment
Stoffregen Motorsports Posted September 10 Author Report Share Posted September 10 Did you watch any of the Goodwood races? The Griffith 200 was lightning fast and easily held off the 289 Cobras. Quote Link to comment

I found two 1965 GT's, here in Colorado. Both were pretty solid. Both went to a buddy in Detroit, who had a completely rotted out REAL Lotus Cortina. I never heard what they did with them................. 1 Quote Link to comment
