Connaught Type B chassis 1

2 OSCA 1557s may also be available if needed.


Any interested collectors do send me your interests, I strongly need them gone.

How much would one of your 1557 engines be?

As it's a used OSCA Engine from last year, I can sell them for up to 11,000 each with an option going less if it's a little stiff for you.

I'm afraid 11000 is a little too steep, especially as OSCA themselves are selling theirs for only 9000. Would 8500 for one be an acceptable price, considering that these aren't works-maintained engines?

8500 is fine by me. I only estimated the original price myself so I wasn't too sure if it was right. But fairs. How many would you like though?

Just the one, please- we only have one chassis.

Scuderia Ugolini will design a Tier 1 engine, designated the Ugolini 1-58, for £5,000. Ugolini will build one 1-58 engine.

The engine is available for potential customers for £2,000.

Hernandez will buy a sole OSCA 1558 engine and build a 562.

OK, there you go. Connaught will sell O.S.C.A. 1557 engine 9 for 8,500 to, Brian Naylor I believe?

Yep- and with that, we now have a complete F1 car ready to race with in 1958.

And also one P26 engine, please.

O.S.C.A. confirms the deal.

Ferrari will design a new chassis - the 246 - and a new engine - the 143 - for this year, at 100K and 60K tiers respectively.

Maserati will wait for a decision about the name deal with OSCA to decide if the name will be kept or changed

FantometteBR wrote:Maserati will wait for a decision about the name deal with OSCA to decide if the name will be kept or changed

O.S.C.A. will continue to use their own name in 1958. My offer to buy the Maserati name still stands though, to allow for a possible later rebrand of OSCA.

Lotus will spend $100k on a new chassis design, dubbed the Lotus 12. We will build two cars for the works team, and two for Rob Walker Racing at a price that will be discussed between the two teams

Coventry will design one engine and build 1 engine, a top tier one: 60000//15000//22.5-24. The engine is named FPV V.

B.C.M.A. will transfer RP.1001 chassis 1 and A/AS Wyvern engine 2 to Owen Racing Organization, for an aggregate sum of £45,000.

In behalf of Rob Wa... oh, wrong team.

In behalf of Owen Racing Organisation, I confirm this deal with BCMA.

Driver signings

Because we've got a couple of people who are now to this series, here's how this usually goes down:

All you have to do is submit the number of drivers you wish to sign, accompanied with a list of up to 10 drivers you'd like to secure for each drive. This list can be the same for each drive, or different. You do not have to submit a complete list.

If you do not submit a list before the deadline, you can still sign a driver later, but your choice will be restricted to unsigned drivers.

But this year, there's a twist...

For 1958, you can add a sum of money to your bid. If your team has a large amount of money and/or you really want a certain driver, you can bid any sum of money. This will not guarantee a signing, but it will skew the RNG in your favour depending on how much money you throw at the driver.

Of course, you can always choose not to offer money. You will still be included in the RNG, but with less chance of making a successful signing.

The deadline is Thursday, November 16th 2017 at noon CET.

Bids for two cars for each team, in order of preference.

Scuderia Centro Sud
Masten Gregory - £35,000
Juan Manuel Fangio - £10,000 (if Gregory is NOT signed) / £10,000 (if Gregory is signed)10

Rob Walker Racing will buy two Lotus 12 chassis from Team Lotus for a total price of £45,000.

There will be a condition involving this deal between Lotus and Walker, but that is an internal thing between me and Wizzie

Reg Parnell racing will bid on Tim Parnell whenever he becomes old and experienced enough, and that's it, for the rest he'll still drive himself.

No huge plans for Ecurie Maarsbergen alone, the team owner himself is good enough.

In terms of the arrangements of the Voeckler/Gordini and ART split...for ART, 150K plus all vehicular assets that aren't Gordini manufactured sounds fair for a privateer effort to roll with?

We are also willing to supply newly constructed cars to the original Gordini specification at build cost to ART if it wishes to continue using such equipment.
