Here is a brief excerpt taken from the auction description:

The previous owner bought the car in 1985, kept it for 40 years and, during the 1990s, had it pretty much rebuilt from the ground-up and optimally specified for racing events.

The extent to which he succeeded may be measured by the size and quality of his trophy cabinet, which includes HSCC Historic Roadsports and 1970’s Roadsports class wins among numerous other accolades to be found on shelves buckling under the weight of cups, medals, gongs and rosettes.

Even when it’s filled to the brim with oil, water and other life-giving fluids, this stripped-down GRP race car weighs just 558kg, which is only slightly more than a rainswept cheetah wearing a poncho.

No wonder it is so familiar with the top podium.

It’s also got no accident history, which tends to endorse the racing capabilities of those who piloted it over the years.

At the heart of this proven track machine is a 108hp 1012cc engine that’s been fettled and honed by the much-respected Imp engine whisperer Andy Jones of Shrigley Engineering.
