Description This impeccable car was the object of a complete restoration in the winter of '96-'97 by one of the most respected shops specializing in historic formula cars. It was a no-expense-spared total restoration which involved reskinning the tub on out. The restoration is detailed in the photos here on on the website. They speak for themselves. Since restoration the car has been continuously maintained by the restoration shop and has acquitted itself very well in the Formula 70s series. It currently runs a 5 race old Jennings big-valve and is a top-running car, absolutely race ready and capable of outright wins. You cannot find a better Historic Formula Atlantic.
