Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

RHD. The last Can Am Championship winning car, driven by Jackie Oliver and the Shadow team. Big Block injected Chevy power, low, clean, svelte body, gigantic wing. Restored some time ago and clean and tidy in apparently race ready condition. Sold by Don Nichols team to Peter Kaus with verbal representation this was the DN4 driven by Oliver to win the 1974 Can Am Championship title. From Peter Kaus Rosso et Bianco Collection.

Market commentary

Whether this was the car Oliver drove to win the championship when he won the Mid Ohio round or just one of several cars on the team that Oliver drove during his Championship season is largely immaterial. This is the last of the origil Can Am champions and an object of veneration among those old enough to have been there to see Black and White and Orange make history. Something of a bargain, too.
