Condition
#3 Good
Runs and drives well. Flaws not noticeable to passersby. Most common condition.
Originally bought by John Willment and raced for him by Tony Dean, then by Peter Crossley in the UK and Europe. Restored by Don Orosco in the U.S. in the mid-80's, raced by Robert McClenagan in SVRA until 2007. Very good but heavily nose chipped paint. Good upholstery and gauges. Exceptionally clean and orderly chassis and engine. A highly reassuring and potentially competitive car.
Market commentary
A competitive 2.5 litre car in race-ready condition with only break-in miles since its most recent overhaul, the new owner also got signatures on the car from Sir Jack Brabham, Tony Dean and designer Ron Tauranac. Brabham are highly regarded for their simple, straightforward and rugged construction making this an ideal ride for historic racing and a realistically priced one at that.
