Want to go racing for relatively cheap? This very much NOT street-legal 1976 Volkswagen Scirocco racecar could be your ticket to weekend fun.
For $5,750, it's all yours. You get a recently rebuilt engine, BBS rims, and brand-new racing tires, according to the seller.
You will literally need to bring a trailer for this car -- it has no title and cannot legally be driven on the street.
Check it out here.

The ad says 210psi on each cylinder - divided by 14.7psi (1 bar), that's 14.3:1 compression. That would be crazy - no pump gas there.
I had a ‘75 Scirocco that I got in ‘77. It was tons of fun and very practical for my needs. It did have a tendency for things to fall off of the engine, though like the EGR valve and the air conditioner.
