Russ Gezon · Current owner

Purchased in Atlanta as a project from the second owner who wanted to part it out. Car came with a stroker sidedraft M10, close ratio 5 speed, quick steer box, modified suspension, etc. Had been owned by an engineer who used it as his test mule. Car has two ID plates, the USA type and another one showing Belgium as point of sale. I've replaced the rockers and most of the sheet metal over the years. Car has been used in both SCCA and BMWCCA autocross and currently has a full cage, fuel cell and a racing logbook from HSR.
