Jeremy Hall should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Just a couple of clarifications to the above comments.
Peter Morley's assertion that the FIA would require establishment of the original engine for the car to run is just plain wrong.The car may be in any complete configuration in which it or any car just like it ran in an International event, the the engine fitted to comply with FIA regulations may be any of those options and an HTP will be forthcoming, such that engines are not required to that which was specific to that chassis in period
Secondly to answer Jay's question as to which motor is required, the FIA historic motor sport requirement for an International use is solely there to ensure that the car represents/or is a car which met in period the International regulations, not a national specification car .There were different regulations in every country-still are- such that in putting together FIA races for cars from all over the world there would be no way of establishing any commonality and fairness.
