I'm looking to buy a running driving 7 replica preferably with a Honda S2000 engine and IRS. I want to go racing in scca D mod. I sold my Miata and my Formula Ford and am looking for a car with the reliability of the Miata and the power to weight ratio of the Formula ford, or hotter.;)

I'll pay a reasonable price. I am expecting that to be somewhere between 10K and 15K depending on the details of the car.

Cash in hand.

Welcome Tom! You probably want to specify an area of the country...

Thanks Robert! The black car looks nice. Your car sounds nice too but my budget is 15K and I am pretty set on the IRS part.

I have put a deposit on a D mod car from Milwaukee so it looks like I am not looking for a car any longer.

Thanks to all here who tried to help me out.;)
