Location:
Washington state Brief History: Under the tutelage of John Vanlandingham, this turbocharged 2.3 liter car sports a BW T-5 transmission and a lot of innovative adaptations of the concepts that Ford published in their Escort prep manual. The front coilover strut assemblies of this car were actually removed and shipped to Los Angeles so that RallyBrick could make Rim of the World! Click on images for larger version. |

Thiel's (?) 242 Location:
Possibly
in New York State Brief History: Rumor is that it was built and run by the Volvo North America Parts Manager. If this is the same Thiel, the family name was attached to a 142 back in the 70's. Needs a bit more research. * Sorry for the bad resolution -- this is what I got. Click on images for larger version. |

TeamJardevall.com (includes pictures of the current Evo) Location:
Unknown Brief History: Carl was a crowd favorite in the turbocharged yellow school bus. He eventually sold his soul and moved into an AWD Mitsubishi Evo. The 740 was sold to Jay Streets who put in a crazy engine. The poor SF-Pyora M45 dogbox couldn't keep up and the car continued to break down. Don't know where it is now, but there are a ton of pictures on Carl's site. Click on images for larger version. |
