Description

This is an early seventies Eisert Formula A/5000 virtually complete rolling chassis, no engine or gearbox but with original tub in excellent condition. With the exception of the engine and gearbox the car is very complete, missing only a rear upright lower rod and front upright lower stub pin to be on it's wheels. The car includes the complete cooling system including radiator and fabricated alloy cooling lines. There is bodywork, somewhat damaged, and front wings. There is one set of original wheels and some suspension spares.

The first six photos were taken about 10 years ago and show the car in a more completely assembled and slightly better condition than it is at present. The last two photos show the car when it was last complete. The remaining photos are from a recent video tape and these and the website video clip show the car in it's current condition.

History

Jerry Eisert was a builder of Indy and Formula A/5000 cars based in Cost Mesa California. This car was owned by Kenny Hamilton of Boise Idaho, father of Davey Hamilton of Super Modified and IRL fame. The car was intended to be run as a Super Modified but was too fragile for that rough and tumble class. Little else is known of the history of this car. Setup sheets are signed by Bill Moir of Interscope Racing. The car is known to have run both Ford and Chevy engines, the cutouts in the top of the engine bay tub sections were made to accomodate a Ford.

We would be grateful if anyone could provide more information on this car or constructor.
