Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Period correct Ford Kent 1600 engine, 32 DFM carburetor, rebuilt Mk8 Hewland gearbox. David Smith painted near the cockpit. Very nice paint. Tires show some wear. A very nice race car. Restored in 2004. No reserve.

Market commentary

This is the way to start open wheel historic racing and this is a very fair price to both the buyer and the seller.
