Description:

At the end of 1977, Jim Johnstone bought a Brabham BT30 from David Winstanley (Crewe, Cheshire) of Lodge Corner Agencies. The car came without history or chassis plate so its origins remain unknown. Johnstone hillclimbed the car with FVA engine in 1978 and 1979, taking numerous 1600cc class wins and even qualifying for the Top 10 Runoffs on a couple of occasions. He sold it to Chris Seaman (Sheffield, South Yorkshire) who raced it from 1980 onwards. Retained by Seaman for many years but at Shelsley Walsh in 2005 it appeared in the hands of Jon Waggitt (York). This car has no chassis plate but appears to be a genuine BT30 chassis carrying Arch Motors number 'AM 70 112R'. Raced by Jon's wife Bronwen Waggitt at Harewood in 2006, at Shelsley Walsh in 2007, at Harewood in 2008 and at Harewood again in 2009. Then unknown until raced by Tim Saunders at Harewood in September 2012 when it still had Bronwen Waggitt's name on the side.
 

The car has undergone a five year restoration fitted with a zero hour Craig Beck Lucas fuel injected 1600 BDA and Hewland FT200 gearbox. Extremely well presented car comes with spares package and original bodywork.
