Finding the Landar R7
 
I purchase the R7 on February 7th, 1998 from Jim Fletcher, a VSCDA member from the Chicago area.  It was completely disassembled.  Jim purchased the Landar  in California and intended to restore it himself when he had time.

When Jim found the car in California it was completely disassembled to repair stress cracks in the space frame. the frame.  This was to be the first chassis rebuild since the car was new, and started raced in California in 1970.
