Description
We have the pleasure to offer this wonderful 1978 Osella PA6 chassis #010 for sale.
This car was born as an Osella PA2 in 1974 and then upgraded by Osella during its active racing career to PA3, PA4 and PA6. It has continued ownership from new and has extensive race history with hill-climbs but also Italian Championship and even World Championship races including the Targa Florio in 1975. The car's full ownership and race history is listed further below in the "History" section.
PA6 #010 is in 100% race-ready condition and has been looked after by renown preparer OC Racing Ltd. The current owner has spared no expense in its preparation and has actively campaigned the car since 2016 in Peter Auto's CER2 race series (up to and including 2019) while also having done Le Mans Classic in 2016.
The car has a valid 2014 FIA HTP (valid till 2024) but a new, updated HTP application will come with the car showing its current and period-correct "La Vagabond" livery. The engine is a fresh, zero-hours Wassermann BMW M12/7 while fuel cells, belts and fire system are all current. This is topped up with a very good spares package which includes a complete BMW M12/7 testing engine, several wheel sets, drive shafts, gear-ratio's, exhaust system and spare nose in addition to miscellanous running spares. This is hard-to-match from a "value for money" perspective!
This "Vagabond" Osella PA6 is totally ready for the 2020 race season and is eligible for all 2 litre Group 6 races including Peter Auto's CER2 and Le Mans Classic.
