Description:

1975  Interscope Lola T332 F5000 .'The Danny Ongais Car'

Referred to in the literature at the time as the ex BJ Swanson, Bob Bay Lola, this is the car that was rebuilt following its accident at Mid Ohio for Danny Ongais to drive as a replacement for his T400. According to crew chief Carrol Smith (Tune to Win etc) at the time "we did everything we could to turn  [the 400] back into a 332 and there seemed no reason why it should not be a good race car-but it wasn't".

A new tub and some other new parts were purchased from Carl Haas and from then on the car ran under the Interscope/Bell Electric Racing banner alongside the Jon Woodner, Interscope, Talon.

The Log Book records the car as the HU42/2

RECENT HISTORY:

Raced successfully by Roger Williams in NZ and the USA.

Purchased by the present owner and extensively rebuilt.

2018/19 Tasman F5000 winner.

Second in a field of 45 cars at the Montery, 50th reunion of F5000 in 2018.

Completed 3 meeting in the NZ F5000 series in 2018/2019

Covid put a halt on racing and only demonstration runs  since then.

No expense has been spared to make this a competitive car and it comes with:

- a zero hours engine with Ti valves, reworked butterflies  and a large journal cam,

- new shocks, new front uprights, discs and calipers,

- new slicks and wets and a large spares package.

This is a very competitive car and wil be delivered in impeccable condition.
