1984 RF-84 Van Diemen

[raisin racin']

Sold ! Thanks Apexspeed !

1984 Rf84 Van Diemen Formula Ford, set up for SCCA Solo C-mod. I purchased the car from Craig Carr in June 2013. Craig had Bruce Domeck of Unique Automotive, Louisville, KY, (502-452-2688) perform a bare chassis rebuild of the car a couple of years earlier, including rebuilding the engine and inspecting the transmission. Car was inspected and aligned by Mark Lamm spring of 2016.

I autocrossed the car locally since 2013, then began sharing the car with my son, traveling more, including Nationals in 2015 and 2016.

Car is eligible to run PCF (Post Club Ford) in SVRA and other vintage groups, as well as SCCA Club Racing, but would require a ring and pinion change.

I am 6' tall, 200 lb., and fit the car comfortably. Car will accept taller drivers, and heavier ones (I used to be heavier !!). My 5'5", 120# daughter has also driven the car.

Reason for selling: My son wants to change classes, and I simply don't want to run the car by myself.

An Rf-84 Van Diemen has placed First (2018), Second (2019), and Third (2016, 2017) at Solo Nationals, so the chassis is competitive.

Asking $9,800. Price negotiable with reduced spares.

The car is equipped with:
New fuel cell
Transmission ratios in car: 15:36, 18:34, 21:30, 24:28
7/31 Ring and Pinion(4.429 ratio)
Aluminum radiator with electric fan

Fox double adjustable shocks, rebuilt by Chris Billingsly (the Shock Shop) winter of 2015/16.
Electronic ignition
MSD adjustable rev limiter
Adjustable Shift light
Removable Super Trapp muffler
New Momo steering wheel
Adjustable seat
Compartment for ballast weights
On board fire system
One set OZ one piece light weight wheels

The car comes with:
3 sets Compomotive 3 piece wheels (one with older mounted rains)
Spacers for mounting wheels
Additional gearsets
Spare painted nose, 2 spare unpainted noses
Misc. body parts
Misc. spares, including fuel pump, water pump
Additional springs

Stub axles, spare drive hub, wheel studs

Likely other stuff I'm forgetting...

Pardon my intrusion, but how did you acquire those spare noses? I've been looking for two years to no avail.

I have always liked these cars. Had a FC version that was prone to overheating as well as a bit of a slow corner push I couldn't get dialed out.
I took the side pods and radiators from an 88 Reynard and replaced the mid mounted radiator. Moved C.G. forward and cured the overheating problem. Should never have sold it!
