If it's the car I think it is then I am familiar with it from my time crewing for a buddy racing with VARAC in Ontario. Was looking for a pic to confirm.

Was a very well prepped/maintained car, super competitive.

Rick - Yes, I originally saw it on Bring a Trailer. By the time I called about it, it was promised to the person I'm buying it from. He owned it for about 2 months and then his race car situation changed and he decided he couldn't keep it. He called the BAT owner and got my name and a few others that had expressed interest. He called, and I decided (sort of) that it was fate.

 

Another person on the East coast was also interested in buying it. Was that you? And where in NJ are you? I grew up in Bergen County outside of NYC.

Steve - I was far to late to be a serious buyer. Really looks well prepared. Have been a Mallock fan from the first one I saw at Limerock many many years ago. Always though of it as a hard core Seven.

 

Grew up in Wayne now in Montville.

Picked up the Mallock this past Saturday. Any thoughts of bringing it to NJMP vanished when I realized that I would need to make some major pedal and seat adjustments before I could drive it. The previous owner was substantially taller than I am. I practically have to lie down to reach the pedals.

 

Here it is in the garage (briefly).
