Description
This Elva was a barn find and has undergone a new complete restoration. FIA papers pending. Known documented chain of ownership and history from the factory. Imported to the US in 1967, the car was fitted with Jack Brabham's 2.5 liter Coventry Climax engine and Jack Knight gearbox, as well as prototype Mk 8 wheels. Updated to 7S specs in order to run the USRRC series. The car is currently fitted with a fresh Ted Wenz Louts Twincam and Hewland. Fabulous attention to detail, no expense spared - new axles, hardware, body etc. This car will not disappoint and is ready to win any concourse right now. Restored by Mark Brannon, B&B Restorations. Our cars are fast, pristine and safe. We are well know on the historic circuit.
