Genuine 70,000 miles in need of total resto. Still has std main brgs and orig pistons and correct orange paint on cyl head. Car retains all the early features. Was raced when new. I have tracked the original owner down and have a lovely letter from him confirming that he had podiums with the car. If anyne has any early racing pics of the car please contact me.
