Chasing Classic Cars 11/30/10

[cygnusx1]

I saw a preview of the new episode that will air tonight. I saw what looked like a Z (maybe Big Sam?) and some other Nissan race cars in the creation of the ultimate collection. It airs at 10pm east.

I hope it's not another "Al Capone's vault." If so, I apologize in advance. :laugh:

I think it is the Brad Frisselle IMSA Z http://www.canepacollection.com/detail-1974-datsun-240z_imsa_gtu-brad_frisselle_imsa_gt_u_championship-used-5124662.html. I have seen several Z's on that show. Last week there was a 240Z and a 280ZX in the yard of the guy trying to sell a vintage Mercedes. There was also a silver 240Z in another collection one time and I saw glimpses of another 240Z as they were driving to a Cars & Coffee meeting in So Cal once.

Yep! Just finished watching that same episode. It's an S30 race car, but I couldn't see enough to tell more.

I'm pretty sure it is the Frisselle car, it was at the Mitty a couple of years ago.

After seeing the episode, it was definitely the Frisselle IMSA Z. They were at Canepa design to look at an early 60's Mercedes 300 SL roadster. They ended up buying another 300 SL roadster in Victoria, BC instead.

Yes, that's the Frisselle Z.

I feel like Wayne has lost his mojo these last two seasons. I can't remember the last time he made money except for the Cobra.

I think he only shows loss on public TV...IRS might be watching.
