This Jeep stands as one of the most well-known, iconic cars in the autocross circuit–and it's for sale.

This Jeep–well, Jeep in body only–features an Allison Legacy Race Car chassis powered by a 2009 Chevrolet Cobalt SS engine and wrapped with the iconic bodywork. It was specifically built for the SCCA’s E Modified autocross class. You can check out our cover story about this Jeep here.

According to the ad, this Jeep includes an aluminum enclosed trailer, several sets of mounted slicks, jack stands, a floor jack, an air tank, a booster battery and a shop manual for the engine. Basically, it has everything you need to run Nationals. Not included? You, the driver.

If you want a full history and in-depth look into the Jeep, guess what? It has a whole blog about it, including photos and details about its upgrades and journey.

Find this Jeep E Modified Race Car for sale on Facebook Marketplace with an asking price of $30,000.

Know the owner as he's super involved in Formula 600. It's a pretty cool car

I've raced against that car. It's wicked fast. Like my brain couldn't possibly process things fast enough to be able to drive it.

Price seems fair.

First thing I think, "Is it that yellow one?"

It is.

Definitely one of the more notable autocross cars out there, and I’m sure it’ll go to a good home. (And please let that home be here in Florida so I can regularly see it run.)

I haven't gotten the chance to see this car in person but have heard so many good things. I'm excited to see what the new owner will do with it.

I remember rolling into some big event–Solo Nats, a National Tour, I forget–and the first thing I see upon pulling into the hotel parking lot?

This on the trailer.

It was very much one of those, “Yep, this is the right place” moments.
