Thank you Ruairidh and Robert. I admit I knew nothing of the Caterham 21 until my old mate google gave me a steer.
I'm told the inspiration for the streamlined shape came from the knobbly Listers. The FW special was the first this shape and after a second 750mc car was completed, Jem Marsh bought the moulds and sold the bodies under the Speedex banner.
I'm still looking for an original bonnet badge from the 50s to replicate if anyone wants to help! I just need a nice clear picture of the artwork (but not one of the vinyl stickers though they are probably correct!)
Actually I'd quite like a complete roadworthy Silverstone...
