Default Done deal

One Van Diemen RF89, a spare engine (to assemble), lots of other spares (of admittedly varying quality), suspension jigs, body molds... ...and a trailer.

And everything except the trailer now housed in the workshop I'm renting with a guy running a Pro 3 (BMW E35 series) car.

Now the fun really begins!

Oh, and pictures available here:

Might want to put this in the STUFF FOR SALE section rather then General Discussion.

Thanks. There's lots to do before it's ready to race again, but I'm looking forward to it.

I owned that car in 1996. I think I have some pictures of it on and off the track. Did you buy the custom made trailer too?

Scott did a nice job refurbishing the car.

Enjoy.

Thanks!

I bought the car, the trailer, a spare motor (to be assembled), extra bits... ...the whole thing.

Do you know who did the rebuild of the front suspension?

The rebuild was done by Glenn Woloski in Vancouver. He owned the car before me. He Also made the front bodywork and all the moulds. I think he bought the car new??

He custom built the trailer too.

The only mods I made to it was a hole in the side of the block, my first time out. It did not work too well so I went back to a motor with no windows. Darn rookies.

I just got the trailer back from Felim yesterday and I've got to say: I'm impressed with that too. It's going to make racing as a one man operation fairly easy, I think; although I hope I can con//coax some family and friends into working as pit crew.
