Description:

Chassis B24-72-5 was supplied late 1973 as a replacement car by Chevron when original car (24-73-5) was written off in practice by James Dunkel at Road Atlanta in August 1973. The replacement car was requested to have forward facing roll bars (due to the accident) and these were later incorporated into the B28 cars. There is a possibility that an ex works car may have been provided (and updated with forward roll bar) by Chevron rather than a new build (last B24 made), however pre 1974 history not confirmed. Car has unbroken ownership record and comes with original log books from January 1974 together with later Australian COD and current logbook.

The car was later converted to Cam Am car as many F5000’s were, but later restored in 1995 back to original F5000 specification. The car has been extensively rebuilt/race prepped since 2012 and features one race meeting old all new race engine (500 plus hp) and one race meeting old gearbox refreshed with new bearings, gears, CWP, diff, etc. Car also converted to CV joints and has recent crack test certificates. Car comes with spare bodywork.

Car is in excellent race ready condition. Potential to be front running car with talented younger driver and further set up testing.
