When John Mayer of Minnesota purchased this T-5 bodied coupe, as the third owner in October of 1989 it was a direct replacement for his then-current 1956 Speedster racer. John\u2019s idea upon delivery was to create a purpose built racecar. The 1600-cc fully race-prepared engine was fitted with high compression pistons and heads, special grind crank, camshaft and rods. With all of this equaling a solid 165 horsepower, John turned to fit out the rest of the car for vintage racing through the VSCR group. This meant correct fuel cell, roll cage, fire system, disk brakes and the various strengthening of vital frame and suspension parts. John has been vintage racing since 1982 in the Speedster until 1989, when he replaced it with this black coupe affectionately called \u201cBlack Tub\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<style>\n        .memberful-global-teaser-content p:last-child{\n            -webkit-mask-image: linear-gradient(180deg, #000 0%, transparent);\n            mask-image: linear-gradient(180deg, #000 0%, transparent);\n        }\n    <\/style>\n<div class='memberful-global-marketing-content'>\n<div class=\"a07online-global-marketing-content-wrapper\">\n<h2 class=\"a07online-global-marketing-title\">No Subscription?
