ME-4(A) Today

The current owner (2006) is Floyd Sable of Minnesota.


Wilbur Dowdle, owned the ME-4 as of early 2002, then had the car for sale in ~2004 as noted below.

He won three Regional championships in the early 1990s with the car.

When the car was run by Wilbur it was powered by a circa 1990 Yamaha FZR engine.

Also, the bodywork has changed from its earlier configuration, as noted on page 2.

S/N 001 has been re-bodied, re-engined, re-braked, and had a VW dry limited slip differential added, so John McCann refers to it as a ME-4A.
