So, I'm considering selling my 1997 Van Diemen RF97 Formula Continental and my 1960 Series 2 Land Rover. Still doing my homework on pricing. Willing to answer reasonable questions, lol. The rover is an 88" wagon. Located near DC

Gas. Bulkhead looks good but needs framework at the fuel tank out rigger and in the front half of the driver's side. The rear has had a galvanized replacement
In reply to clownkiller :
Yeah, need to. Just decided to do this reluctantly. Long covid has kept me off the track for 3 years now.

I need to create the ads with pics and share here. It was a spur of the moment post and will put up ads and pics tomorrow
That Van Diemen is cool, but I need another car project like I need a hole in my head.
BTW, is that a CBX 1000 I spy?
That's a good formula car project. Wish I could, but need to put my money towards a new daily driver.
You should probably post it on apexspeed as well.
In reply to BoxheadTim :
Yes 81 CBX. 5k miles. Complete but needs a thorough cleaning. Tank has clear issues. Have a spare fairing and side cases. Come this week and you can have it for 8k
In reply to BoxheadTim :
It's not a car project, it's a formula race car project. And, honestly, this is closer to working on a motorcycle than a car. Maybe even easier, after wrenching on my ducati 916

5K miles? You do know how to get my attention . Let me do a bit more research on these and I'll get back to you in the next couple of days.
Does it run?
Towed. Fuel tank needs replacing or refurbished. Tires have a ton of tread but too old to use on road. And I wouldn't want to push that frame too hard until a little work is pur into it. But as I'm at 4k and not 24k... Plus the series 2 is the rarest, and my opinion, the coolest of the Series...
In reply to BoxheadTim :
I haven't run it this year but ran like a raped ape last year. Gotta love that 6!
I have a guy who can pick up the VD for 5k this weekend. In case anyone is interested at that level. The CBX is gaining traction too incase there's interest in that.
