Meccanic Shop North (A. Serra) Garage Sale
Got an email from Anthony Serra that he's cleaning house, with lots of great cars, spares, and parts for sale.
** 1995 ITA Acura Integra - the "ARRC spare"
** 1991 EP/SPU Integra
** 1995 ITA Integra - #99, aka "the nicest IT car in the nation"
...and there are others that are likely to go. If you know of something you've seen Anthony bring to the track, it sounds like it might be for sale. Engines, gearboxes, suspension parts, etc.
I didn't get a chance yet to ask him if I could post his email/number here so, for the time being, if you are interested please email me and I'll forward it to him - kirk.knestis(a)evaluand.com

You can say that again.
As I recall, it's got a Stack dash, beautiful cage, beautiful detail and paint work...the whole thing. It's actually a show quality car. At the ARRC this year there were people, myself included, traversing the immense Road Atlanta paddock so they could get a look close up. It was worth the walk.
