Most of those would've survived or restored back to its original state - not unusual for teams to go through more than one season with just 1 or 2 cars
Ford in Köln has a museum with several cars from that era. Including C.Ludwig's Texaco Sierra 500 rs, a Wurth Capri 1,7 turbo, a Blue and white Mondeo made for a racing series that never got going.. Brazil GT. A Escort Mk IV touring car with a 1,8 liter turbo. A Fiesta Mk II 2,0 Liter racer. And also a big collection of daily drivers, utility vehicles and some more bizarre creations. Plus... there was an area, we didn't get to see, where the Racing Division, had a garage with special cars. I take it, those are the ones, that have won and are still used as show cars. Only about 2 km from that place, is the Köln Auto Museum, where Michael Schumacher has donated a car, from every year he raced in F1, plus a Sauber C11, a Ralt F3, and other memorabilia. Plus a large collection of vintage cars and design gems
Sehr oft war ich da, immer super
Love this era.
Where would some of these cars be today..? I imagine in personal collections, museums, and in secret forgotten places...
Sadly most of them were scrapped, they only kept the ones that were winners or broke some ind of record...
BossaNossa1 Some of these cars are still running in historic race events, e g. the Ford Capri Turbo, several Porsche and BMW M1

Are those turbo charged 800hp Porsches and 600hp Capri in a same class and n/a BMW M1s in their own class?
Division 1 were all in the same class. Only cars less 2000 ccm (or about 1400 ccm turbo-charged) had their own Division 2.
