Chassis:
Ted Field's Interscope Racing acquired this 1980-specification 935 K3 to replace the team's earlier example, which had been damaged in an accident. It was raced from the April 1981 Atlanta round, usually by Danny Ongais, who was joined by Field for the long distance events. The best result was a second at Road Atlanta in 1982. After a final appearance in practice for the 1983 Daytona 24 Hours, chassis 000 0027 was retired from contemporary racing as the team switched to a Chevrolet-engined Lola prototype. Ongais retained the car and it remained in storage until 1999. Its subsequent owners regularly campaigned it in historic events. Following a brief spell in European hands, when it was raced in several events, including the Le Mans Classic, it has now returned to the United States. Beautifully prepared, it was then raced on both sides of the Atlantic until it was consigned to the 2021 Gooding Pebble Beach Auctions.
