Finally; after 30 years, one month and 24 days, we made a deal on 17th September 2012.

Reserve Revenge was stored in dry garage since August 1982. Now she out in the sun after ten years!

Preparing Reserve Revenge for season 2013. New breaks and breaklines, "folkrace" - gearbox and new engine 74x92 with VZ-30.

I bought this engine without heads for 250 euros, added D-port heads and IDA's. By the way, Kotten, the original owner,  helped a little bit with engine
