I'm afraid it was me that had a rush of blood to my head and bought it! £29,000 plus premium. It still needs extensive works to bring it back to its former glory, but its a pretty car that is alleged to have raced in Brazil in the 50's. I'm currently trying to track down any history that may be available about the car, but so far haven't been able to contact the previous owner.
Here are some of the racing pictures that appeared in the sales details. They appear to show it RHD???
These are scans of some articles that appeared in Action in 2002. I haven't actually got copies of these articles just the scans, so if anyone has the actual editions that they no longer need I'd be very grateful if they could let me know.
Any help, contacts or comments would be really appreciated.
Thanks, Nick
