yes and yes,
3 sierras
blue one i got from japan, and yes it is an original eggenburger sierra rs500 built in 1987 by rudey fair hands, and then painted a crappy blue colour by the tasan motorsport who raced it in the fuji 500 in 1990 came 3rd out of 65 cars so quite quick then, i beleive a skyline won,
i beleive this is the car that a very rich japanese car bought from rudey in the pitts after the race, after it easyally won and upset a lot of jap cars,
he said to rudey eggenburger that he wanted to buy the winning car and when rudey said no he when offered a silly amount from a suit case and the deal was done,
i suppose rude thought whot the hell i can allways build another one,
thats how it proberly ended up in the collection of the very rich japanese guy, who had his showroom for his 15 or so cars next to the fuji race track,
he also co owned the track from whot i am led to beleive,
still peiceing little bits together when i can sorce information as it was a while back now,

yes i know it run on pirells and i do have the original ones that where fitted when i got it,
but it was on wets and allthough they where new! still with the little nobbles on ect, they where well over ten years old, still holding air but sadlly had little cracks in the rubber because of they age,
so not wanting to take any chances with them,
e/mailed pirell and still hopeing they are going to spot me some new ones

as far as i can tell ruedy put different numbers on the cars at each race as they where totally rebuilt after every race so all cars where the same,
i have seen documents with the chassie numbers and race number for the 87 races and the cars raced with different numbers,
so again my guess is that most if not all ruedys drivers drove it,
the drivers names will be added later in the week,
steve soper and pierre dieudonne on the side,

That looks awesome mate.
BUT Garrett is spelt wrong.
And shouldn't there be only 1 eggenberger sticker on front.
Martin you know how i feel about this car so i hope you dont mind me picking bits on it.I Think you want it right as much as me if not more.

it loooked like this when it arrived from japan,
as you can see it was very dirty and had not been started for over ten years,
it now is in the condition a car of this calaber deserves,
