Condition
The shell has been restored in the past when first prepped for racing and is still in good solid condition with one steel wing and one fibreglass wing. It does have dents, scrapes and blemishes and would ideally benefit from a re spray.
I can provide further detailed photos but viewing is definitely recommended.
There’s a few jobs left to do to make it race ready the main ones being:
Charging system (dynamo present but not wired up)
Windscreen wiper motor
Engine Tune up
Fit bumpers
A great opportunity for someone to get in to historic motorsport with a truly unique car.
The car is located in Chandler’s Ford, Hampshire.
