Description

The Brabham is powered by a 1600 c.c. Lotus twin cam engine backed by a Hewland five speed gearbox with reverse. It has Mk5 internals. The dog rings and fork checks were done this past Spring.   

The engine had a full rebuild by Ivey Engines in 2015. It was refreshed by Ivey in 2019, and has an Ivey prepared F2 style oil pump and XLT Super Starter. The engine has eight races on it since the full rebuild and three since the refresh. The most recent race was the Velocity Invitational in June, 2026. 

The Brabham rides on Hyperco springs and 8211 Koni dampers. New half shafts, stub axles, wheels studs, and yokes etc. were provided by Peter Denty and Taylor Race Engineering in 2001-2003. The suspension, shift linkage, steering column, etc. are nickel plated.  

The OMP Platinum fire system bottle is still in the green but will need to be refilled/recertified or replaced due to its age. The belts were new in 2026, and are FIA homologated. The Brabham also comes with a hard wired transponder. Additionally, a new battery for the car was installed in 2026.

The spares are impressive and worth many thousands of dollars more. They include a complete body (nose/cockpit, undertray, and engine cover) that has already been finished in the car’s current colors and not yet used. The cost for those pieces alone was $11,000. The car comes with two spare fiberglass seats and one seat cover. Spares also include multiple gear sets, old (probably original) gauges, dash panel, and more. The car will also come with two spare wheels, one front and one rear. See the photos below, which will also show what appear to be the car’s original aluminum fuel tanks, including the long distance tank.  

The log books with the car go back to approximately 2000. Also included will be a notebook from Cam McKenzie from 1968, along with newspaper clippings and more info from prior owners and from the Brabham Registry. 

We think this is an amazing buy. It is a classic cigar shaped 1960’s era Brabham that is fresh off the track from one of the premier U.S. historic races. It comes with significant spares. It has a highly detailed period history dossier. The price is fabulous. 

No more excuses. Get the Brabham and come join us in the  FB Continental Championship Series. Fabulous new friendships and new memories are waiting to be made
