THIS CAR

Chassis HU76/164 is the sixth of these continuation cars and was built by Lola to celebrate their fiftieth anniversary year and driven by multiple world champion, John Surtees, and Lola-founder, Eric Broadley through the company’s home town of Huntingdon.

Completely overhauled, crack-tested and race-prepared for the 2024 season by long-established British specialists, Wolfe Engineering, this official factory-built Lola T70 MkIIIB benefits from a freshly rebuilt engine, gearbox, and is fitted with a brand new fuel tank.

CHASSIS & BODY

Unwearied by the rigours of a decades-long racing career, this youthful example of a period icon remains fresh, taught and in excellent condition, both mechanical and cosmetic. Benefitting from a full strip and rebuild during 2023, the car still retains a box-fresh allure. A new ATL fuel bladder was fitted in summer of 2023, when crack testing of wheels, steering and major suspension components was also undertaken.

ENGINE & GEARBOX

The 5-litre, naturally aspirated, Chevrolet V8 has been fully rebuilt by reputable builder, Tim Adams, and has had zero-hours’ use since. The powerplant is mated to a Hewland LG600 gearbox, which has also been fully rebuilt in the recent recomissioning.
