Gary Cossaboon's 1959 Elva Courier
|
Rebuilt junkyard find over fourteen years in home shop... currently running the 1800cc engine ...
recent conversion to GT6 front disk brakes and 13 inch rims...
VSCCA spec rollbar height precludes fitting factory bows and hood;.. Bimini top keeps the sun off and the car isn't driven in the rain, except Watkins Glen 2012.
No proven race history, but the car has been in the Vineland NJ Speedway area since 1968. All four corners had been hit and remnants of a roll hoop mounting behind the driver's seat were found during initial restoration. Original red body with white triple stripes found under the four layers of paint, all suggesting some race history. Sam Perry perhaps, but the trail has gone cold. Info about this car or factual Perry car identification would be appreciated.
One of the duplicate Bexhill chassis numbers, this is the eastcoast 66L wearing the correct original plate.
