1974 Zink Z-10 $10,500

This is a solid Club Ford, Vintage Club Ford, or possibly an auto-X car. Car meets all requirements of Monoposto CFF rules other than tires. Car can accommodate a very large driver. More photos on request.

The facts:
Original steel body Bilstein shocks, refurbished by Bilstein. Reinforced front rockers. Stiffer springs all round. Alignment by Cypress Lane Racing. Steve Lathrop's excel setup spreadsheet file included.

New Fuel Safe cell in 2008, SafeCraft firebottle new in 2008. OMP belts good to 2017.

Loyning motor, freshened in Feb. 2014, 5 weekends on engine. SCAT steel crank and CP pistons. Dyno sheet and invoice available. Hewland rebuilt by Porter with a new case, new ring and pinion in 2008. Includes two spare gearsets, and a spare dog-ring.

4 sets of wheels, including 1 set Sterling mags, two sets of Revolutions mounted with American Racers, one set of Goodyear rains mounted on steel wheels.

All Zink specific spares included. Two rear uprights, extra rear sway bar, and several front blade sway bars of various diameters, anti-ackerman kit. Repairable spare nose, professionally made nose mold included. Spare engine cover. Two spare motorcraft distributors. Radiators were recored with high efficiency rad cores when the car was rebuilt. Runs 190F in 100+degree heat.

Car has been very reliable while driven by an old, slow, fat wanker with no talent. All that it needs is a transponder, air in the tires, gas in the cell.

Have log books back to new, April 1974. We are fairly certain this is the third Z-10 built. It was built from a kit by R.B. Haines along with Rollin Butler of Cricket Farm Motors.
James Brookshire took it to the Runoffs in 1978 and took 3rd place behind Dave Weitzenhof.

Tump Clements bought it from Brookshire, raced it for a season and then built a new chassis for it. It passed through several owners until the car was last raced in Oklahoma until 1992.

Car sat for 12 years when I bought it on ApexSpeed, stripped it to the frame and rebuilt it over several years on the “easy payment plan”. Barry Calouette widened the chassis and shoulder tubes so I have plenty of room. Belly pan is steel, welded to the chassis.

The down side? It’s heavy, weighing about 990lbs with fluids, so it meets the monoposto rules. Car is located in Northern California, near San Francisco. Please contact me via PM or email.

Dan Wise
