I'm still a virgin with these cars, but if I remember right, the serial number below from their site would indicate this is car number 406 built in 1998.

yes on his site the serial number is rite but he emailed me saying it was a 2002. It is clearly not a 2002. So thats false and misleading advertising. i was looking for a red sp and didnt recognize the am in the serial number. AGAIN BEWARE---> always research before buying.

Good catch. FWIW, #747 was built in Jan/Feb 2000. Gives you some sense for production counts from '98 to that point. The older cars are quite solid, but it's too bad the seller has to misrepresent the car.

He might be old or retired like me. I neither know the year; month; day; date, but the time is on the bottom corner of my computer and it is light outside.

Although it would be odd for an SPF which comes basically finished minus motor/trans, it is possible that it was built in 1998, but not actually registered and titled with the state until 2002. If that is the case, then the title would say it is a 2002, and the seller's claim would be correct, it just isn't the complete story. But again, I doubt it took anyone 4 years to finish and register an SPF, but stranger things have happened.

There is also SP01384 (also RED) for sale on Ebay ( item # 320237518863 ). I have personally seen the car and it is NICE. Runs strong!!!!! It was for sale in Houston for several months.

I think that the early SPF cars did not come as "rollers" and required substantial work to put them together.

I can't speak to earlier than the one I had (346), but it came as a roller. Just had to add motor , tranny, and hook-ups, etc....

I still have a 2000-2001 issue (maybe it was 1999?) of Kit Car with that advertisement on the back cover. And, ironically, the same issue had not one but TWO red/white stripe Superformances on the cover. I wonder where I got the idea on what I was going to ultimately own... |
