Looks like folks are getting rid of the toys 1st.

Looks like a good time to acquire cylinders!

The restoration of the 280Z BSR car was close to $190k and that was to get it to racing spec. Prep costs for each race were in the $10-$20K range.

The car is now in sunny California while it's stable mates are still in NH (I'm missing the single turbo 300ZX picture).

Just having the money to buy the car is one thing, having enough to put it on a race track is another.

Are you talking about the car in the first picture?

Is that first picture supposed to be the car that won the 72,73 etc C-Production championships, that was then ran later by Scott as a 280Z?

Are you saying that car in the first picture is in California now?

thanks,

Carl B.

Carl - the first car (280Z) was sold to Adam Carolla it seems to join his BSR #33 610 and a 300ZX Newman car as well.

The other cars (300Zx single, the 280ZX twin turbo and the 300ZX Cruise SCCA street production version) are still up here in NH, last time I checked.

There is some question about the Cruise car being the one he drove as it seems there were several cars. This one was restored and the damage to it was extensive (it was dented everywhere but the roof), so it was out on a track at one point in its' life.
