So sad to see this happen, but, alas, in the real world businesses will come and go and in this day and age more seem to be going. We can still run our Lolas and "remember when".

You don't suppose Jules would be interested in 1:1? Nah!

After Formula V, my first "real" racer was a Lola T200 Formula Ford. :crying-yellow:

I remember when Carl Haas was the North American importer for Lola. He was close by and I would
sometimes buy odds and ends from him for my race cars. Hopefully a vintage racing enthusiast will
pick up the NOS items, rather than some entrepreneur who wants to make a killing from the vintage
racers. Now that even recent cars are being let into vintage events, there will be a market for parts
for newer cars as well as old.
