March 19F... good bad, ugly???
ok, its not ugly, but I had an opportunity to buy a complete running car last summer, that I think may still be available (also passed a Forsgrini Mk2 that was WAY out of my pricerange).
basically, I'm not looking to win, just get around the track in one piece and learn to race. anything particularly good/bad about the car, the fiberglass was a little tired, but a long way from "gone" and the mechanicals seemed good and intact. I don't recall much about the motor, but the car was mid-pack in the monoposto group at BRIC last summer IIRC.
thoughts?
Parts for the March...and others
There are several people that can fabricate excellent wishbones (Pat Prince comes to mind). They just aren't that difficult--or expensive. I judge car availability by rear uprights. Some of the cars had cast uprights, while others had fabricated. The rear upright is likely the most expensive non-generic component on the car, and fortunately you don't need one very often. I have seen instances of cars where there were no uprights available and a good fabricator quoted $900 and 3-4 months to produce one.
