     The three cars still exist...two owned by none other than Charles 
     Runyan of TRF fame....Charles also owns two of the Sabrina engines, 
     and actually raced one years ago at (I think) Road Atlanta...but with 
     somewhat mixed results.

I asked the same question of someone in the VTR in the late `70s, and 
the person wrote back that he heard then that there might be one of the 
cars surviving, and possibly two or three of the engines. Was fairly 
sure that the person who owned one of the cars and a spare engine wasn't 
about to sell them, but I don't remember the name of the owner he 
mentioned. I do remember the owner was in the US.
     
Cheers.
