Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

RHD. Single seater setup with full windscreen surround, head fairing and passengers side hard tonneau. Restored in the UK by John Oakley in the late Sixties with some subsequent historic racing history, then long displayed in the York Motor Museum in Western Australia and raced at least annually. Cosmetically sharp, mechanically set up and race ready with deDion rear suspension.

Market commentary

Like many (most) Elevens this one has been worked on, modified, revised and improved during its life. An unusual configuration and exceptionally pretty (like all Elevens) this is a reasonable amount to pay for it even though its over the high estimate.
