Just looked again at this advert and it appears that the car was fitted with a Nicholson 2 litre BDG when raced by Phil Winter rather than the Hart 1840cc BDA engine that Geoff ran and which appears to be in the car now.
Also notice that Phil's estate was selling a 'Foster' trailer. This was a little enterprise my brother and I had going in the mid/late '70s. I worked with a John Foster who had a sideline making horse boxes and agricultural trailers and I asked him to make a 4 wheel race car trailer for me which he did. We only made around 6 trailers and one was purchased by Phil. One went to the Bristol area and not sure where the others went.
