1996 RF96 Van Diemen

[FASST]

Finally... I saved up and am ready to buy your RF'96, specifically & only a 1996 Van Diemen. Anyone out there with a garage queen or a fixer upper please PM me. I have cash and I would like to get one asap so I can prep for the 2013 season. Complete preferred but a roller or a slider is also an option, lets discuss.

Thanks,
T. Fass

I have a RF96 are you still looking?

[FASST]

Hi Tommy,

I am still in search, if you could please send me some information about the car (motor history, when car was last ran, most important... what needs to be fixed to get the car track ready for this season) This is till the mono-shock up front?

I'm traveling for work but PM me and we can figure out a date I can come down and see the car. (is it located in burbank or?)

Looking forward to hearing from you soon.

Thanks,
Tim

that's not a 96......

[FASST]

I think its a 94 ? Any insight...

[Nardi]

94/5. Notice the roll bar extension

[Beartrax]

There are 2 front shocks. Not a 96, unless it was converted.

[Rick Kirchner]

converted 96s have the shocks on top the frame. That's a 94/95

[Purple Frog]

looking through my notes... Chuck Cecil in SC has a '96. Randy Warren in NC has a '96 he has not raced in over 10 years. It may be available. Chuck is a Apexspeeder, he would know about Randy's.

[chuck cecil]

Randy sold his last year. The car pictured is not a 96 . A 96 has a different shock cover.

I had a 93 and a 96. This one is in between and looks like a 95 given the bodywork looks original.

[Becker Motorsports]

I believe it is a 95. Frame, sidepods,front shock set-up, etc. just like our original 95

[Rick Kirchner]

late 94 or a 95. Early 94s had the parallel radiators (narrow sidepods) Some late 94s had the 95 pods and all 95s had the wide pods. Lots of narrow 94s were converted later on. No frame differences, if you look on top the front hoop cap the frame # is stamped there.

this car has the original VD diffuser and angled rear sidepod floors as opposed to the more modern style that has a consistent width from the curve of the sidepod all the way to the back of the diffuser.

Thanks for everyones input in resolving what year the car in pic's is

I have received a couple actual '96 VD's leads that i'm following but back to the original message...

Still looking for that 1996 you want to sell me, so PM me with your cars info & I will get back to you shortly.

Thanks again everyone,
Tim
