Equipment
RHD. Lotus team car raced by Jim Clark, Jck Sears and John Whitmore. Freshly rebuilt by specialists after being used on the street for many years following its racing career in its as raced configuration. Comes with factory record card recording races and drivers. Fresh, sharp and historic race ready.
Market commentary
The estimate is appropriate for a freshly restored, historic race prepared factory Lotus Cortina, but as the bidding proves badly underestimates the appeal and value of an ex Jim Clark Lotus Cortina. This result is the product of time and place and is impossible to duplicate with any other Lotus Cortina.
