I can get my hands on a 1971 Elky. This car was actually a race car that's been in the garage for the last 15 years. It has a full cage, tubbed, fiberglass front end, etc etc. My thought was that since this is already cut up, it would make the perfect candidate.
What is your thoughts? The goal is to have a really competitive car at the end of the day that's street legal. Is this car not worth it? I've seen plenty of super fast A-bodies, so this should work. Or is it too big and top heavy?
Thanks for entertaining my thoughts!

I love the idea of the Elky, it's already a race car so it shouldn't be to hard to make it fit the racing you want todo!
As the question was asked, what kind of racing series do you want to compete in? You say be very competitive? That cost
A LOT of money which I'm sure you know and if your thinking Optima you still have to go up against the newer more aerodynamic cars.
