i found this in a museum
it has some very different things about it
i think ? its an old BROADSPEED car ???
i dont know much about it
but notice the Aarm type rear end , the inboard front shocks
the unusal long back seat an the very early type door handles
would be good to know some history on this car ????

Hi, I think it's a spare 1968 car that the Alan Mann team had but didn't need. It was sold to New Zealand and used by Paul Fahey. It now belongs to Graham Dodd who has done a fantastic job restoring it.
