Road legal 360 Challenge

F-register is ultrafast in replying - indeed it might be a conversion! JH you are great, and this shows that F-chatters seem to be the most reliable source of information !!!

F-register has stated: "the car was spotted road registered in Aug. 2000 in Germany on plates
FRG-F 999 and at the Danish 60 anni relay in 2007 (YE 21 444), both times as a "normal" F1 Modena in Rosso Corsa/Nero.
There seems to be no competition history in Challenge races for this Serial Number."

 

Great - they must have sacrificed a true challenge to build up this hybrid!
Do you have a picture of this car where one sees the speedo? Is it converted, too?

 

- well, and then the question comes up, what else apart from the serial number has been taken from the Red car - seems much easier to take the serial number parts and integrate them into the Challenge Car, than the other way around. It would really be interesting to know, what they did!
Many thanks for all your posts and insights into this Danish car!

 

- this "conversion" is indeed incredible - F-register has provided me another picture of the interior of the car.
JH: may you explain us the Danish regulation that makes such a conversion reasonable? In Switzerland, if you modify a car by any means, you must have this approved by an official inspection. It would therefore be much easier to modify the original Challenge to standards the official authority would tolerate, than to put all items of a Challenge car into a standard Modena...

Just for future readers I must repeat my statement on ZFFY51C000128322 also in this thread here:

This british car is NOT a 360 Challenge car, but an ordinary 360 Modena with some challenge parts put on. Particularly the body shell, transmission, suspension etc, and the VIN are NOT from a challenge car.

This is a standard Modena that has been tuned and used for some private racing.

 

Dear ModenaChallenge,
Thanks for all your updates! Your auction car is obviously a hinny, i.e. a hybrid.
As mentioned earlier and elsewhere, I would be interested into which two cars have been involved in the creation of this hybrid.
As far as I understand, you propose:

Donor 1: Crashed 360CH race car of Peter Sowerby.
There are several infos about P.S. and his 2003 and later races online, and P.S.’ race car had a similar livery as does your current car. However you haven’t provided the VIN of this 360CH donor yet. Could you check the VIN and crash date with Damax?

Race Report - Rounds 7 & 8 - 2004 Pirelli Maranello Ferrari Challenge - Club Racing Series' - Ferrari Owners' Club
Seems the car has been rapidly repaired after this incident
2004 Pirelli Maranello Ferrari Challenge - Club Racing Series' - Ferrari Owners' Club
2003 Pirelli Maranello Ferrari Challenge - Club Racing Series' - Ferrari Owners' Club

Donor 2: a standard 360 Modena donor car, VIN ZFFY51C000128322.

Are there other donors involved? Which parts of the present car are from donor 1, which from donor 2?
