It was built in the narrow body configuration and run in SCCA Regional/National races in the Central Division, as well as some one-off entries in Trans-Am and IMSA. Mickey Agee bought the car in 1975 or early 1976 and updated it to the widebody configuration. He ran the car in SCCA Trans-Am for several years. Dave Horchler bought the car from Mickey Agee and raced in local SCCA events in Michigan. He also entered a few IMSA events. In his pro" races, Dave also shared the ride with co-drivers such as Don Erickson (SCCA club), Don Yenko (Elkhart Lake, Mid-Hhio, LRP) and Jerry Thompson. Dave eventually sold the car in November of 1983 to two lawyers from Florida who alleged to be “racers”. Mark Montgomery and his friend Dave (?) bought the car in November and entered it in the IMSA finale but did not qualify. After that, they ran the car for several years in Florida races.
