$42,000
This Swift 008/014, Chassis #007, was purchased new and used in the Pro-Atlantic Series by Lynx Racing. Lynx had 4 008’s in its inventory at the time, and #007 was the test chassis. It also carries a CART Registration #206. According to records, after Lynx, it was stored for a number of years before it passed to a second owner who ran it 3 times after which it was acquired by a Pro-Atlantic team based in Iowa City, Iowa. Under that team, #007 qualified for the 2007 SCCA Runoffs. The Chassis was strengthened in 2000 at the Swift factory with new laminated chassis supports and the chassis upgraded to 014 with the addition of 014 tunnels, uprights, and wheels. All chassis points are scribed to match the chassis number. The powertrain has been with Hasselgren since new. The powertrain (engine, differential and gearbox) have all been rebuilt by Olsson Engineering in 2011. 1.8 hours have been run on the powertrain since that time. The clutch is a Tilton and has 6-7 races on it. Fire system was installed in 2011. New AIM EVO-4 dash installed Dec 2016. New Willans belts Dec 2016, good to 2021. Vehicle comes with a clean SCCA Logbook. In 2014, the car was tested at New Jersey Motorsports Park where it ran 6 laps without incident. The car has never been in an accident. Body was stripped and repainted to show quality in 2014 in the existing paint scheme by Carl Haas.
