Description:


THis ex-Norman Dickson car ran the European Championship in 1977 to some success. Even better in the British Aurora series (together with F1's & F 5000's)
where it held many track records. It was completely restored 1999-2000 and has since then just a few hours of test runs. The owner does not have time
