Pre 63 Flat floor FIA E Type with fresh Sigma Engi

Very much priced to move as i am stepping away from historic racing. Cost is the fraction of a new build but just as competitive.
Any questions just call.

- It is also noted that the car only missed out on a podium at the 2022 Silverstone Classic by a few hundredths of a second following a puncture that cost more than 30 seconds in the pits.
