93 Van Diemen FC Roller

SOLD

I have a 93 FC roller. No engine. LD200 needs a major overhaul.

Needs plenty of work.

Really complete except for 1 engine bay support that can easily be fabbed.

I have acquired the front (rare) engine mount.
New front wing (still has plastic on it) that needs to be correctly fitted.

Bonus - sheet of 090 alum for the new floor it needs (plenty of dings).
Previous owner claimed 180mph through T8 at Willow Springs - and now I understand the floor and blown engine.

Setup for smaller driver - no, it doesn't have wood blocked strapped to the pedals - has master cyl extensions.
And a really nice seat that I can comfortably rest one of my legs on.

not Race Ready !

$4000 obo - paul at amerisoftcorp-dot-com

Located in LA area. Pictures next weekend.

The early VDs seem to be known as "small guy cars", but I raced a RF93 for a few seasons at 6'0"/175#, plenty of room. I could even do my belts myself (but help was always nice). Great car to be able to race in both Vintage and SCCA with (double your race wknds per year if you want).

Still looking for that photo. Have taken one before but not recently.

It's basically a removable triangle at the back of the bay for extra support.

Rick, Sent you an email days ago - no reply. Thought you lost interest.
I've got several people trying to work out shipping which seems to be higher than ever.
So, I'd get those estimates before sending me a deposit.

Paul;

I have a lead on a transporter from a soundly reputable Apexer. I’ll try to get an estimate tonight.

Paul;

Tentatively have an agreement with a transporter. Check you PMs.

Is that an XR650L in the background? Any interest in selling?

Not mine, XR600. Not for sale.

The Datsun Fairlady project is for sale though. Everybody needs one...

I used to get my AvGas at that airport! Didn't have a clue that plane owners sometimes had race cars!

I just visit, but there are quite a few. More car collections than you'd think. Hollywood type collections.
And the aircraft tucked away in there..... :thumbsup:

Pleased to hear it's sold quickly...and especially before I had any more ideas about repatriating it to the UK!

The sad thing is: there probably exists one of these within 4 hours of you and every one else that inquired (Canada, Florida, Wisconsin, Arizona).

The number active is a small fraction of what was produced.
It's finding them, connecting with the 'keepers' and getting them to let go of the car.
