Another 904GTS question, this one ex Vasek Polak
I found a website that has a story abut a restored 904GTS (story here)
For Sale: 1964 Porsche 904 GTS ex-Peter Gregg/Brumos » Motorsport Retro but my question is, deep down in the story, it says "Following the 1966 Daytona 24hrs, Brumos sold ‘068’ to the father of a young, amateur racer from Jacksonville named Bill Hall. Soon after, however, Hall unfortunately had a tragic accident racing the 904 at an SCCA race in Savannah, Georgia and the car was split in half. The wreck was returned to Brumos where it remained un-repaired. In 1971 the remains were sold on to fellow Porsche racer and US Porsche Distributor, Vasek Polak. In 1972, it is known that parts of the suspension were removed and used by Dieter Inzenhofer, Polak’s chief mechanic, to rebuild 904-064, but the rest of ‘068’ was untouched and remained in storage in Polak’s warehouse for the next 25 years." What I am curious about is what it sold for then to Michael Robottom of Jersey , Polak having died. I wonder if the wreck was sent to the restorers including the engine and gearbox. Thanks for any info. |
