WTB: Club Ford - various marques considered

[CornerSpeed]

Hey, ApexSpeed community! After years of racing vicariously as a crewman, I'm jumping in and I am looking for my first race car. My wish list is topped by 1979-1982 Van Diemen Club Fords, but I'm open to a Crossle 32/34 or Lola 342 too (if the frame has been verifiably strengthened). Also, 1980-1981 PRS would be in play too. Bonus interest for cars on offer that include spares and a simple one- or two-axle open trailer as part of a package deal. Prefer a complete car but I would consider a tidy roller too.


I have to limit my search to west coast cars (Washington, Oregon, California, Nevada, Arizona). If you have a car you were considering for the marketplace, feel free to DM me, respond to this thread or email me (with photos please!) directly at motomichael25(at)gmail(dot)com. Thanks!

Hi everyone. I’m happy to announce I have found a great car to purchase and closed the deal yesterday, bringing home a 1979 Van Diemen FF. The seller was a stellar gentleman and I couldn’t have asked for any more from his car, trailer and voluminous spares package deal. Now the real work begins to get myself and the car properly prepared for the rigors of competition licensing school in late February/early March. Looking forward to racing and finally living my dream! Thanks to everyone who contacted me with leads and suggestions.

Looks like an IRD single axle trailer.

According to the registration document it was manufactured by TNT. The seller had it custom-made. It is quite sturdy and well-made!
