Lola T204 FF for Sale

For Sale:
Lola T-204 Formula Ford

This is one of several special lengthened frame cars, which have an extra 5” in length. This is nice from two aspects, 1) accommodates taller/larger driver (I am 6’2” 200lbs), and 2) more stable handling (regular T-20x cars have shorter wheelbase than most other FF’s of the same vintage). I have owned this car since 2009, and being an engineer by training, I have gone through every system in the car to make it work reliably, and am proud to say that I have not had one DNS/DNF in the last 4 years. I have completely enjoyed my stewardship of this wonderful car, and it is now time to pass it along to someone else.
