Shawn Bassett's 240z is a real "rags to riches" type automotive build, starting as a sub-$2k barn find - and ending up as the carbon bodied time attack beast you see before you now. And the best part? Shawn drives the hell out of this thing any chance he gets. Subscribe to Hoonigan Autofocus for more car photography related stuff!

Shawn Basset is our type of dude. With our type of car build. Clean/engineered enough for a Build Bio episode, but built to be used. Heavily. Check out what his time attack car can do out there in the burnyard.

If we were to add a "rags to riches" story to the book of time attack, this would be it. Shawn Bassett knew he wanted a 240z after watching one clean up at an autocross way back when, found one for cheap, and spent the next few years building to attack time. AND - he just took a podium finish at the car's first time attack race!
