If you’re looking for a cheap way into the potential money-pit that is motorsport, we’ve cooked up a list of cars for sale in Australia which could scratch the itch.

So open your wallet/bank account (or don’t, we’re not the boss of you) and let’s get started.

1974 Holden HQ Kingswood Group NC race car

Everitt has a significant history as a racer and race car builder, as well as an enthusiast in general, so it’s worth checking out this car if it suits you.

Its $38,990 asking price seems reasonable, if the car’s in an equally reasonable condition.

2000 Subaru WRX STI race car

It’s a Group 3J car, which is classed as improved production, so aside from the racing gear it’s primarily stock. Sort of. Err, for a race car, anyway.

1963 Fiat 1500 Series 1 race car

It comes with a roadworthy, but is “set up for tarmac rallying and historic motorsport events.” The asking price is only $14,000.

1974 Datsun 260Z race car

Among the mods are a set of custom headers, bigger more modern brakes, adjustable suspension, a roll cage, and a close-ratio gearbox.
