Hi All,
It is RAINING SOOO Hard in the SF Bay Area! Anyway, I have attached a link to a video my son and I took this morning. It is of a Lola T300 F5000. This car my dad used to vintage race back in the early 90s. The car had been put in poor storage 11 years ago. I have gone through the car, mostly cleaning it up and repainting things. Check out the link. I hope you all can hear the video. http://f1.pg.briefcase.yahoo.com/marinmcgreevy Yesterday it was raining hard, the kids were over at their friends, and my wife was out shopping so I took the opportunity to put in some good time. I started working on the car about 6 months ago. The car has not been started since July 1993. This car was driven by Jerry Hansen to the 1972 FA national championships at Road Atlanta. The car was raced by Jerry Hansen in a USAC sprint car race in 1972 against roadsters. I have a photo of Jerry in the car on the Minnessota State Fair Oval. Based on the research I have done, the car has only been raced about 16 times and is truly a time warp car. Now that this car is essentially finished, I may now turn my attention to the 914/6. Time in the garage comes at a high price. It took me 18 years to finally have a garage. All those years fiddling with cars in the gravel driveway of my old house. If I need any 8mm nuts, I can always go over to the driveway of my house and look in the gravel. Enjoy the video.
