There's  also another Spit on that  board:

Looks  like a good starter car, although for the $$$ there'd better be a 
LOT of  spares.

Geez, depending on the "period," my car is far more "period correct"! I  
mean, the infamous Hardly Boys RaceSpit 4 has NO rollcage (just a fairly stout 
 bar), single-circuit brake system, original fuel tank (with trunk-mounted 
Bendix  fuel pump), etc., etc. ;) 
 
That's one of many reasons why we decided NOT to go racing with what even  
in 1983 was a long-abandoned race car. It would've cost too much even then 
just  to make it a legal "school" car, let alone competitive on any level of  
Production racing....
