    It would be possible for the Piper to be transported to NJMP for the upcoming FRP event so that potential buyers may view the car. The car can be setup with gearing for NJMP for someone with serious interest if they would like to test the car on the Thursday test day or purchase the car and run the race weekend. Feel free to reach out to me with any questions or to make plans to view the car.
