This 1974 Chevron B27 is an ex-Formula Atlantic racer that has been campaigned by the seller in HSR West and SVRA events for the past 18 years. Power comes from a Cosworth BDA 1600cc engine that was built by Bob Slade in 2007 and received a top end rebuild from Picks Racing Engines in May 2017. Eight gears sets are included for the Hewland FT200 5-speed gearbox, and maintenance has been performed by Collins Racing of Santa Ana, California for the past ten years. An enclosed two-axle trailer comes with the car, as does an extra set of wheels, body and wing molds, two noses, a parts list, logbook from HSR West and SVRA, and an engine build receipt.

Originally owned by James King and driven with Doug Shierson Racing in 1974, the car was eventually acquired by the seller from Sandy Dells Racing of Vista, California in 1999. It maintains the seller’s #2 livery, and the finish presents well with some minor track wear noted. A dent is present on the right side of the chassis from driving off the track at Willow Springs.

Body and wing molds, two noses, and an additional set of wheels are included in the sale. New tires will need to be fitted prior to track use.

The seller is 6’3” and reports that the cabin can accommodate taller drivers. Some wear is present on the steering wheel, and safety equipment includes a fire extinguisher and harnesses.

The Cosworth BDA 1600cc engine was built by Slade Engines in 2007 at a cost of over $13k. Picks Racing Engines refreshed the top end in May 2017, with only dyno time placed on it since. Records from the last decade are reportedly available from Collins Racing who have also prepped the car for the next race at Willow Springs.

A 2000 Interstate twin-axle 20’ box enclosed trailer comes with the sale and is pictured above. A video from the last race at the SVRA 2016 Festival of Speed in Coronado, California is viewable below.
