Description

The 1954 OSCA MT4 we have for sale is MT4 Chassis number 1148. It is 1 of approx. 78 OSCA MT4 built. It carries the desirable Spyder coachwork. It was sold in 1954 to Harry Allen Chapman in the USA. The car was raced by Harry Chapman and Bumpy Bell in 1954 and 1955 in Arizona and California.

In 1955, shortly after competing at Minter Field, it was driven by Road and Track and written up in the August issue as their test car.

It was later sold, through Ernie McAfee, to Chick Leson. Leson raced the car in California at Buchanan Field, Salinas and Santa Barbara.

The car went through the hands of several owners in the 1960’s and by 1976 was in the hands of John Hunholz, a doctor and race car enthusiast.

Restoration began on the car but was never completed. It remained in his garage for over 45 years.
