If you’re looking for a fun and fast entrée to open-wheeled historic racing, this delightful Citi Bank-liveried ’76 March Formula Atlantic is on the money!
Emerging in the United Kingdom from United States Formula B regulations in the early ’70s, Formula Atlantic found great success as both an amateur and professional class of racing.
Similar to Formula 2 and 3, Formula Atlantic is a developmental series, and it saw the rise of the likes of Gilles and Jacques Villeneuve and Michael Andretti, who won the series in 1983.
This car, chassis 76B-8, is a March Formula Atlantic from 1976. It’s propelled by a Wenz 1600cc Cosworth BEA motor and features a Bahner tub. Included in the sale are spare body panels – this is a race car after all!
At $75,000 it’s an affordable race-ready option to get into historic racing, and we dig it!
