Description

Sadly, the time has come to let my beloved 242 go to another owner. I've owned her for the past 10 years, putting on a couple of thousand miles in that time. A few track days here & there, but mostly run on rural back roads. Very fast 242, specs to follow. Almost perfect body with NO RUST. Just put the small dent in the front left fender last week not shown in pictures by the lake, as I am moving & a headboard fell against the car. Has a cage in the rear & have the 2 tubes for the front, although I wouldn't put them in for street use... Car was built a dozen years or so ago by Evil Genius Racing in CA. I must downsize my Volvo collection & this just doesn't get driven much. Car wouldn't need much to be a daily driver again. Did notice a little intermittent fuel pump noise, which may clear up with a filter & some use... the specs...

Good 242's are getting hard to find. Paint is decent from a short distance, but car has been painted at least once on top & deserves that (Grrr) front fender dent(SEE ALL PICTURES) fixed & a good repaint.
Car is in So Utah, 2 hrs north of Las Vegas Nevada, Car is offered at no reserve, but available locally, so bid to win...

Just to clarify, the troublesome K jet injection motor & all related components are NOT with this car, the prized oil squirter block from 1994 & the MUCH more tuneable Jetronic from an '89 are in it's place.
