    Default T590

    I have a couple of customers looking for their old cars from the 80's. One was T590 HU2 and the other T590 was about the last one built and owned by myself in 81 after it ran in the UK.I sold it to Frank Rubino in Florida.
    Any ideas?

    Default HU 16

    While you're looking, I'd be interested in HU 16. Ran it in the mid 80's and I think it went to Michigan.

    Default T 590's

    I have chassis HU 33, which I got from the original owner.
    I have talked to owner of HU 15 , it lives in CA.
    The light blue one from Ohio recently for sale last year was HU 11.
    The Lola registry shows the old Peter Krause/Larry Dent car was HU 42, and there is a 592 listed as chassis HU 63, so 590's had to be no more than 62 in production.

    What was the chassis number of the last one built?

    At this point in my life I could be talked out of mine as children seem to be making racing going further and further out of reach...

    Default 590

    I'm not sure - I bought the car from Lola and it was the Spax sponsored car driven by Jeremy Rossiter. It had a long tail that was the 592 prototype on it when sold and a small (non scca legal) bump on the roll hoop. I have one photo of the car outside my shop in 1981. I sold it to Frank Rubino in Miami who bought a Chevron S2 from me in 82 but I never knew who bought the 590.

    I owned HU-49 which was the first T-592S, a test mule for Lola trying new ideas - like centerlock wheels - for the first time. It went to the Southeast for about 6 years then Kevin K. sent it to the UK.

    Phil:
    I sent you an email suggesting you contact (by phone!) Wendell Miller. He preps Jack Donnellan's 598 and B07/90 and I am sure he has lots of gossip from both vintage and SCCA.

    The T-590 is a lovely (if flimsy) little car! Loved the fairing around the roll bar and man, that thing would turn SO nice with these light little springs... I bought Larry Dent's car and ran it for a few year. Won a National with it in 2005. It's now in Connecticut needing some TLC.
