Your car has a roll bar that appears of smaller diameter tube than the one that was added to my MK1. I did not see any names in the registry that I recognized. As I sold the car in 1973 it is unlikely it is still owned by the same person.

 

 

I do not remember the chassis number. I could identify it by the previous owner body mods and chassis details. I have seen the reproduction bodies and chassis. What is the web address of the registry?

I have only memories...no parts. The Alfa engine was retained by the former owner who used it in a Lotus 23. The Alfa Romeo transmission I had for years and when I moved I gave it to a friend. Do you know of a Lola  MK1 registry?

The MK1 I had owned in the early 1970's was purchased from an SCCA member in New Jersey USA after he crashed it. I sold it to a collector also from New Jersey. It had a modified front body section. Flared fenders with a "lip" added. Chaparel looking. It was missing one "pontoon" as that was destroyed when the car was crashed. It had been modified to accept an Alfa Romeo 4 cyl twin cam and 5 speed transmission. The purchaser did not want the tranny. The engine had not been included with the car. I would love to see it now!
