Description
Up for sale is my Rallye Green 1975 Volkswagen Rabbit
Race Car.
This is a very rare first year Rabbit with a 1974 built date. The 1974 to 1976 rabbits are known as Swallowtail bodies due to the unique body lines that these years had. This car was bought in 1975 by Gray Wheeler owner of the Rabbit Hutch (in Tualatin OR) a VW water cooled performance shop that built SCCA Rabbit race cars in the late 70’s and early 90’s. This was Gray's personal race car that was used to win numerous ICSCC races on the west coast from the mid 70's to the early 90’s. The car was really fast and was able to run at the top of the ITB class full of Volvos and BMW's. This Rabbit is still set up very close to the way Rabbit Hutch built it.
Specs:
1.6L built to ICSCC specs, Webber downdraft carb, long tube headers, 5spd trans, TT short shift, Bilstein adjustable with H&R race springs, disc brakes front and rear, SS braided lines, full SCCA cage, battery relocated to back of car, power shot off, OMP race seat, push button start, 5 point harness and original Panda Sport racing wheels. The body and paint still look good with few minor bumps and bruises.
This little Rabbit won its class at the SCCA West Coast Runoff's at Sear's Point in California three years in a row 1985, 86 and 87
I just put new Blue Hawk pad up front and bled the breaks with new racing fluid. Head lights, tail lights, marker lights all work. Front head lights have Plexiglas covers.
This Rabbit is ready to race, runs great and a blast to drive. My plan was to vintage race it but I just never found the time.
