Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

RHD. Factory built lightweight first delivered to Dr. Peter Berry and driven by Bruce McLaren in 61 and David Hobbs in 62. 310hp; fully race prepared engine and chassis, hardtop, alloy wheels. Excellent cosmetics, very clean and race ready throughout.

Market commentary

Comparing this result with recent Lightweight sales seems to indicate that its active racing history and extensive modifications to be competitive in Historic racing have hurt it relative to its more original siblings and successors. Thats consistent with this markets preoccupation with originality, but to a racer who wants to be at the head of Historic fields its also an opportunity.
