driftwood has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!
802-6 came back to Uk via Brannigan ( he brought back 2 832 cars as well form ZA 1 becamea GT car the other ran with mazda in libre then converted to F2 engine) hillclimbed in Uk then did 2 circuit races and sold to a road car trader in a part ex deal who then sold it to a racer who took the bmw for his sports car
chassis ended up in goodwood auction and bought by a non racer but he has fitted f2 bmw to the car

Andy Bartons 802 was the AC3000 Gt car sold to the hotelier then it went to Ron Cummins and not used since

Roy woodhouse car is 822 ian sheckter car from ZA
802-12 is in UK restored3 years ago and has empty engine gbox on it and been sold to a car owner ( may be on display in Brooklands museum? ) who had it for sale via Jester racing last year

the kiwi 802 is expensive for what it is needing full rebuild and with no real sereis to race these great cars in they are hard to justify owning ( i know a si have 1 as well ! )
UK HSCC cut off at 79 EEC F2 at 78 Oz have opened up to 85 and usa are really at 1980 cut off but do relax the rules for the odd entry to run
