Tony says: "The car is serial number HU62 originally raced by Gary Passon and then someone
else whose name I cannot decipher and then by Grant Simpson and finally by Gale
Hasz. The log books last entry is 7/2/83. Since then it has been used in autocross and hill climbs. During its life it had been run over curbs a lot and basically all of the rivets on the bottom rubbed off.
It had been pretty severely hit in the front so I have replaced the front bulkhead welded new sections into both upper and lower front wishbone mounts, and replaced all of the rivets in the bottom of the car with cherry q rivets as well as adding new aluminum sheets to the underside which had been fairly well compromised by repeated trips over berms. I have also cut off the front six inches of the monocoque and replaced it with new aluminum. This process is not complete in these pictures but more will be forthcoming." |
