Ralt RT 5

[Michael Edick]

Thanks to dereklola, I'm on this quest to find out more about my car
According to Derek, my RT5-196 was sold to Walter Lechner in June or July of 1980. Some how it wound up here in the USA, so I'm trying to fill in the blank areas from 1980 to when I bought it in 1995. Would love to have any info or photo's of Mr. Lechner driving a my RT5 back then. What's really curious is that a fuel cell that's in my car is registered to a car that belonged to Michael Andretti. The fellow I bought the car from said it was an ex-Andretti car, but had no proof...I thought he was just pulling my chain, but now this little wrinkle in the history of the car has shown up! I know race car parts get swapped around all the time, but a fuel cell? I've tried to contact Mr. Lechner thru his racing school's website, with no luck. So, if anyone has any more info on my car, or knows how to contact Mr. Lechner, it would be greatly appreciated!!!
