Chassis: 000 0009
Completed ahead of the 1980 season, this 935 K3 was delivered new to Dick Barbour Racing. It debuted at the Daytona 24 Hours where it qualified third but was classified a delayed 29th overall. At the subsequent Sebring 12 Hours, John Fitzpatrick and Dick Barbour had the perfect weekend as they started from pole and won the race. It was the start of a very successful season that saw Fitzpatrick score numerous class and outright victories on both sides of the Atlantic. At the end of the season, Fitzpatrick was crowned IMSA GT Champion. Chassis 000 0009 was then sold to Preston Henn, who would continue to campaign both in Europe and North America with some success. In 2015, it re-appeared at the Monterey Historic Races, resplendent in the colours used by Barbour and Fitzpatrick to win the 1980 Sebring 12 Hours.
