Description
1963 Turner GT with great history from day 1.
FIA N-HTP - DK3050
Chassis Number 30/ 206
Originally registered 1255 PO on 1st May 1959, then later re-registered as XFO 156 which it retains today. It has an interesting history, having been built as a 950S, it was involved in a road accident in 1960 when an apparently drunk driver drove into the back of it while it was parked in a layby. It was returned to the Turner factory & repaired by fitting the then current Mk1 body which it still carries, it was also upgraded to full Mk1 specification at the same time.
30/ 206’s early history after the accident is unknown, although most Turners were used in some form of competition in period. It surfaces in 2001 in good condition as a race car, having been exported in that year to America & owned by Norm Sippel, editor of Historic Racing USA magazine, who prepared it for VSCCA racing, it is pictured on The Turner Register website - details above at Lime Rock & Roebling Road raceways.
