December 12, 201212 yr comment_409126 Here is a couple better pictures of that car from the Detroit race one of it on track and one of it up at Adams Shop we are starting restoration on the sister car first. By the way the photo in post 376 of the Posey car chasing the 914-6 the BMW 2002 in the foreground is the Nick Craw car and if you notice the #46 on the door his co-driver was John Morton and of course Nick went on to be president of SCCA.

December 13, 201212 yr comment_409143 Carl, Does your hood still open this far?Not quite - that is a picture from the 73 500. The photo was taken by the guys at TRACKSIDE Photo, and they loaned Peter their 5 gallon water jug, to help replace the coolant lost though a leak in the radiator. Later the hood was modified with stops repositioned - so it stops about 10 degrees sooner now. If it is in the way, the hood can be removed when you pull two quick release pins at the hinge.

December 21, 201212 yr comment_409759 Funny that you sent that picture as that is the new car we just got and I am heading up this morning to put in a new windshield and do oil changes on everything. Yes we did the resto on the roadster and it won the rolex trophy at Monterey the year we took it up there. Currently starting on the sister car to the roadster which was John Mortons car. I hope everyone has a great holiday season this year all things considered.Les Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/30935-lets-show-vintage-racing-pictures-ill-start/?&page=33#findComment-409759 Share on other sites More sharing options...

December 22, 201212 yr comment_409855 GTP undressed...It's not a GTP car.It's an R90CK ( Lola chassis ) with the VRH35Z V8 turbo engine from the 1990 Le Mans 24hrs. Specifically, the JECS 'sponsored' #25 car of Donnelly / Brancatelli / Acheson. It had qualified 5th, but DNF'd due to terminal transmission trouble.

I am quite certain they would want the parts. They maintain a warehouse of rare and historic parts. Bruce Canepa is the name of the owner and I think you can just search Canepa Restoration.
