    Go on--build the vintage vehicle. We need more C cars anyways.

    I used to see several 2 door Toyotas running--not 4 Doors--but they are still good cars.

    There used to be three two door ITC Corolla's that ran in the MARRS series. One was very competitive (Bob McKeithen). The two door sedan (with a trunk) seemed to be the best car with the two door hatch model not far behind it.

    Both cars suffered from L.O.I. (Lack of Interest) from their owners. I saw one of them in a trailer last year, but it has not been out of the trailer in four years minimum.

    I agree with all that it is cheaper to buy an already built car than to start a new build.
    Hopefully anyone wanting to race one of these cars has a yard full of them as I am sure that parts are hard to come by.

    cheers

    I know the car that you speak of, and it's for sale. Two of them as a matter of fact Dave. They come with a huge mess of spares too...
    Enjoy,

    Yes Bill I know that they are for sale. The "lady" that owns them still owes me $900.00 from when she wrecked my ITB Golf at Summit Point in 2002.

    Not interested in the cars, her, or the soap opera.

    Then why bring it up on a public forum? Something like that is best handled in private. Unless of course you want to go public with it...

    Bearkat might be interested though. It's always cheaper to start with a caged car than from scratch.

    Just trying to help out someone who want's to get into the community that's all. Not interested in getting into any personal drama.
    Enjoy,
    Bill

    Thanks guys. I appreciate the buy vs build argument, but building the car would be half the fun. There's a good group of ITC racers in the Great Lakes region, so I'd like to stay in ITC. I just want to make sure a 4dr corolla is at least capable of running mid-pack (assuming I can keep it there).
