The A110 was a sports car built by Alpine that used Renault components. It was light and fast making it a serious competitor. In fact, the A110 dominated rallies across Europe there for a while. This particular car has some race history of its own. It was rallied by Marcel Rainville of Renault Canada from new and then saw some ice racing action in the late seventies by the hands of Bill Burch. After the fun was over, it went into storage for about 35 years. The current owner hasn’t gotten around to restoring it so they have decided to list it for sale. The car includes a bunch of spares and is listed here on kijiji for $35k Canadian. Because of its history, the seller would like the car to stay in Canada. Thanks goes to Matthew D. for the tip!

Obviously this racer is going to need some work. The chassis is rusted, the engine needs rebuilt, and just about everything else will need restored. The instruments and transmission are apparently good though…

There’s the R8 Gordini engine. The seller mentions that they have a couple of extra engines, but that they may sell those separately. I get the feeling this guy isn’t too anxious to part with this car. Can’t blame him really though.

This factory installed roll bar proves that these puppies were built for competition driving. Most saw action so finding an unrestored one in good shape today can be a challenge.

It may not look like much right now, but this could be quite the machine after a restoration. I’m not sure if the seller’s asking price is realistic, but it would be fun to bring it back to life and enter it in a couple of ice races up north!
