And now the government auction' begins at Level 5.

Anyone want to build a Lola on the cheap, 10k for the chassis apparently, just needs an engine and number plate for a speedy commute.

That is ridiculously cheap for some of those cars even if it is not in running mode that is still a good price. With the important words no Reserve set listed

Plenty of body work and spares to build yourself a man cave. And I'm thinking you could get that Lola road "legal" in Louisiana, donate that Mazda engine of yours but you might need a few spares

(Or blessed Mazda fire)

Somebody's going to end up with a heck of a Historics setup for a very good price, I suspect.

MaskedRacer User has been fined for unsportsmanlike behaviour!
I remember all of the hired gun drivers Level 5 would bring in too. Guy Cosmo sold out on ESM for a short term big pay day for Level 5 in 2013. I think he hurt his long term career big time by doing that.

I wonder if that's the chassis Bouchut "modified" at the ILMC race at Spa?

My understanding was that he and Scott Sharp weren't seeing eye to eye and was likely on the way out, regardless of L5.

Looks like it from the listing:

Powered by a Dinan specially tuned Ferrari 430 motor
EMCO Gearbox
Specially built by famed racecar manufacture Crawford Composites
2008 Grand Am spec tube frame car - designed to maximize the GT Grand Am rules

And even better:

Flat AL underbody
Built like a DP car for easy maintenance and repair

Say what we will about Chief Tucker and how he spent, but dude knew how to drop some coin in a fun way. That ride is over.

From this page:
http://auctionsamerica.com/media/release.cfm?ID=1303

What immediately strikes you about the former Level 5 Motorsports Collection is its sheer magnitude. It is incredibly rare to see such a diverse assortment of race cars, equipment and spare parts, all offered without reserve at one time,” says Barney Ruprecht, Car Specialist, Auctions America.

I think some of the lot will go for decent prices. Folks have some "legit" money these days...
