Daytona Motor Sports for Sale

This is Richard Bendell's factory (of Motec fame).

The CCCV visited the Factory in 2008 and this car was on display at the time.



From memory this was a very finely constructed car and looks to be keenly priced.

Other pix from the very popular event...





Are you still looking at Daytona's Richard?

Lovely cars, but that model, that manufacturer, and that year of construction will always have an unfortunate place in Australian motorsport history:

From the intake manifold and valve covers it look like a LS motor Merv.

The thought did cross my mind

Saw the 5 litre spec but figured it was a typo, probably from the shaking hands of a blue oval boy
