Chassis:
The second of the SC304s built, this car was sold as a rolling chassis to Swiss privateer racer Heinz Schulthess for DM 54,500. He entered the car for the 24 Hours of Le Mans but received the car late and had to install the Cosworth DFV engine on the way to the track. All the efforts proved in vain as no time was set in practice and the car failed to qualify. For the remainder of the year, the car was finished in Warsteiner colours and raced in national and international events, predominantly, by Kurt Hild. Following its contemporary racing career, it was eventually joined the stable of Swiss historic racer Jean Marc Luco. Through Jean Guikas, it was acquired for the current owner by Yvan Mahé. It was complete but required a complete restoration, carried out by Mahé's Equipe Europe. From 2015 it has been raced with great success by a Swiss enthusiast in the Classic Endurance Racing 2 championship.
