Default Ebay ad - ORCA for sale

Sweet mother of gawd, this is nice. No affiliation. I remember seeing a video of this thing on track awhile back, passing everything in sight.

Been for sale for a while. Wonder what year that was built? Mid 90's?

That thing is a relic, and a true monster. Seems it went down in price, I seem to remember seeing it some time ago listed for 99,000 or somewhere around there.

Cool car. Has been for sale for a while. Also like the dyno video that has been floating around.

I know the car and saw it recently.

It's bad *** but will need to be gone through due to its age. Belts, fuel lines, fuel cell foam, etc... would all need to be gone through.

The car made 550RWHP. And the I was told by the guys at Vision it was a true monster on the track.

They are asking $70k for the car but you could probably get it for $55k-$60k.

And I can guarantee with 100% certainty that you would spend 2x-3x that to build something similar.

I wish I had got it as the basis for my starting point. The car I got had a lot of what was done to ORCA in the chassis department, which is a lot better than starting from zero.

Someone should buy it.

It kills me looking at it.
