I agree! But at least it has the roof-mounted Lucas 576 lamp (BIG $$$ right
there)! Meanwhile, I sure hope there's some good documentation with the car,
since it looks pretty darned "normal" otherwise. (Not that I expect there still
to be 1962 rallye dirt on the car, but....)

What about Butlers? Wipac? Raydyot? All still British. ISTR that the TRS cars
had Butlers fog and/or driving lamps. At least that's what I remember seeing on
the one that used to belong to Bill Clarke and is currently in the hands of
Charles Runyan.
