The car dates from 1925 and has a 1991cc engine. It has been raced all its life, most notably by Ron Foottit. Now in the hands of Tony Lees.
Love the little leather armrests! A bit lacking in rollover protection, but at least a padded spot for your arms.... priorities!

Thanks Bob.... I now feel edumacated.
Great to see it has been used hard all its nigh on 100 year life
