Long time responding. I did contact Haas. They didn't have anything on the "old" stuff anymore.

But we did find the full history now on our car. The original owner was Mr. Pat Hovenden, who raced it in the UK, and then Brian Hegbourne (whose famous F2 racer brother Tony drove the car too), then to Canada and the US for a great and long racing history - and lots of pictures. I've spoken with all the prior owners back to the one who bought it from the first Canadian owner, and have been able to get lots of papers, pictures and info on the car. I have even spoken to Pat's business partner at the time of the Elva, and separately to his racing partner at the time (a noted Lotus historian actually), who both provided great information about the car. It has been a great journey.
