Very similar to a series one lotus seven.

P.S. I think Flogging the holy heck, roughly translates to driving very quickly

I have done searching under "Kurtis Offenhauser" and have not found it- did find some beauties though. Pretty sure its not the series
one- but will do more searching under that.
Thanks

It is a kurtis, I saw one racing at Coys historic a few years ago. It was strong on the straights, but about 40mph slower on the bendy bits, typically
american!
If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

Sorry Dale, should have said the rear wings are similar to a series one Lotus seven.

I was thinking Allard, I know I've seen this ...
before..... It's a curtis.

Seem to remember the one I saw for sale... Ohhh, 20 years ago, was Cadillac powered with disk brakes adapted from a P-51 fighter plane.

Thanks kindly. Now all I have to do is find a rear shot of one for some ideas. The back of the series one is somewhat similar as well. Still not
certain of the look of the ass end yet I want to use.
