It's the body from this car. I built it in 1979, cheap plywood, doped Irish linen and an absolute minimum of metal.
It was on a 1937 Ruby chassis with extensions supporting my Box saloon fuel tank. Wide Bowden front axle. Bowdenex brakes. 15" wheels. 1934 engine, 4 speed Super Accessories gears.
Painted bright red with Woolworth's enamel. It was raced very successfully by Kevin Martin. It was known as The Red Car.
In 1982 I modified the body to get a much lower seating position but before I could finish the work the driver had moved on to other things!
It was never re-assembled but most of the components are being actively recycled.
