Description
Make no mistake this is a turn key car requiring nothing. Last ran in 1999 at Silverstone in Historic F3 driven by Chris Alford and then in a Sovren event in Seattle earlier this year (2003). It now has a fresh one event old all steel 165BHP Lotus Twin Cam motor on 45DCOE Webers, the 5 speed Hewland is in excellent shape, the 6 point belt is new as is the fire system. During the cars recent freshen all components were crack tested before re-assembly, all rod ends were checked and replaced as needed, all alignments set with a 180lb driver, the car shows no signs of accident damage ever and only requires a new owner. Can be run as a F3 exhibition car or FB less wing and treaded tyres.
