    I should have guessed what was under the cover, Elva was my guess. This is a great find and with some cleaning and what I presume will be pretty easy stuff you have a very fine car. Yes please bring us more on this car and your other race cars. Here just South of San Francisco I see a read Elva that is road registered every so often, great little cars.

    Well it is green so it could have been a Jaguar D Type! This car looks like it has not been off the road or track for too long and when you came to start the engine it seemed to be eager to run. It sounds good but as you say it needs some preparation if you want to race it. It will be interesting to see some work done on this Elva. Thanks Steve for not making us wait too long for the reveal even if I guessed wrong. 👍👍

    I think my 66 Alpine had Smith gauges and it definitely had those cool toggle switches. I wonder if my Alpine and your car we’re cousins.

    That fuel gauge may work and you have no fuel. I’d check because you don’t want to burn out the fuel pump.

      The racing fuel cell that was put in does not have a sender, on my other cars I use a marked dowel to see how much fuel is in it I was surprised not to find some kind of stick in the trunk for checking the fuel level.
