Looking for vintage vee to restore.

I'm interested in finding a vintage vee to restore for my daughter to eventually race. I am currently running a FF with CVAR in my home state of Texas. Currently living in north Louisiana. Thanks for any help - Marcus

I have made a purchase. Thank you all for the help. One of your tips led me to a car. Although not the one I wanted, I think it will do. One thing that I learned it is a lot easier and cheaper to ship a car that can be rolled onto a transport truck rather than a car in pieces. Thanks again for all your help. - Marcus

I have a 1979 Zink in need of TLC. It is available as a dragger. I probably made a mistake in judgement when I used it as a doaner for the new car now in process. It will take work, but it had a unique look when it was complete. Pictures are available.

Be careful to buy a car that is vintage elegible. I know a 1979 zink is not momoposto legal but check with CVAR about what is legal with them. This car may be earlier than 1979 as the model and date of manufactuer is often confused on older cars. zink did not number his cars very well.

Hey, I've been emailing the past few days to this "guy", I use the term loosely, with the Vee that was on ebay. He's just a few nuts short of a tree full.
Just FYI. Good luck trying to get any info from him.
