Equipment
Alloy wheels, removable rollbar, 5 point belts, fuel cell. One of ten fiberglass bodied TZ2s built, raced by Count van der Stratens Team VDS. No race history given except anecdotes. Decent fresh repaint, otherwise a clean and reasonably well prepared historic race car that doesnt look like its ever had or needed a restoration.
Market commentary
The TZ2 is a special case, a small displacement rocket ship capable of running with the Big Dogs but outside the mainstream of overall win contenders in period. The performance (on the block, not on the track) of 116 at Bonhams Quail showed that collectors with seven figure discretionary accounts still favor safer, widely recognized, bets, although its well raced condition did nothing to appeal to American glint and glimmer tastes. For a dedicated historic racer, $2 million for this TZ2 will yield healthy performance dividends.
