MA Caged RX8 Shell

Year: 2004
Make: Mazda
Model: RX-8
Price: $3000
Mileage: 55000
Color: Silver
Private or Dealer Listing: Private Listing
Location (US State/Canada/Int): MA

Dropped to $2500

My brother and I are selling a really nice RX8 shell that we planned on building. The cage builder copied the Speedsource team design from when they were running a Mazda chassis (they now run a tube frame) and did a very nice job on it. The chassis has also been seam welded and repainted OEM silver on the interior and cage. Rare non-sunroof chassis. OEM seat mounts were cut out and plates welded in. Included is the entire rear subframe, differential and rear suspension less shocks and springs. Also installed is the full chassis wiring harness, one tail light, dash with gauge cluster, steering column with stalks, gas tank with Speedsource baffle and pump, pedals, brake lines/master/booster/ABS pump, clutch master and lines, wiper motor and linkage with cowl cover. We also have a custom dolly for moving the car around on that will be included in the sale. It should be cheap enough to put together considering the low cost of complete running RX8's. No hood, front bumper, headlights or front suspension/subframe. One dent on the bottom of the drivers door and another on top of the drivers front fender. What you see is what you get.

Email is the best point of contact.

Very nice. If my wallet wasn't getting raped by the season, I'd be all over this.

Good luck with the sale.

What sanctioning body and class was this being built for? Wrecked my track car, looking at options.

The original owner was building it for one of the NASA PT classes. I was going to run it in COMSCC's SPC time trial class and SCCA STU. SPC is a street class restricted to NA 4 cylinder motors and NA two rotors. Nearly anything goes, just have street running gear (headlights, tail lights, wipers, glass etc) and stock body/frame. Very similar to STU, just no weight restrictions.

A grinding wheel and a little paint can take care of the seam welding in a weekend.
