TERRIER FORMULA JUNIOR 1960 MK4 SERIES 2 CHASSIS NO 5/1

• Great Opportunity to acquire a “totally unique,” Ford  powered front engined Formula Junior, the only one of its kind!
• Designed by Len Terry, independent race car designer and driven by Brian Hart in period
• This Formula Junior was built as a replacement for the original FJ Terrier Mk4 Series 1 chassis #1, which Brian Hart totally destroyed at Oulton Park in 1960
• The Series 1 and 2 cars have completely different chassis, the Series 2 being lower and wider. (3 series 1 cars were made and only 1 series 2)
• Unfortunately, in 1961 the rear engined revolution was well underway and although Brian had some good results, the team was totally underfinanced and only ran in the UK.
• In 1965, with 1500cc engine, Roy Lee won the British Monoposto Chamionship.
• Lawrence W. Sufryn,  owned the car from 1982 until 2015 when it returned to the UK.
• Lawrence raced this car extensively and successfully all over Europe from 1982 – 1997, claiming multiple successes in the FISA championship and the FJ Lurani trophy.
• Lawrence moved this car to the US in 1998, raced 2 years in California (Laguna Seca, Sears Point, Thunderhill, Buttonwillow), before moving it to the Midwest in May 2000 (racing 2000-2002). Then raced at Grattan, Blackhawk Farm, Indy Raceway Park, VIR, Gingerman, Pittsburgh GP
