Elva Mk7

This car took part in the Group4 Racing European Sports Prototype Trophy race at the HSCC's Gold Cup meeting at Oulton Park in August 2004.
It's Clive Wilson's 1964 Elva Mk7 with a 1,598cc engine - the programme of the event doesn't specify the engine maker and Ford, Porsche, BMW and others supplied engines for the Mk7. I would guess that this one is a Ford. There's an Elva Owners Club for people who own any vehicle produced by Elva.
Here's Clive Wilson during the race leading the 1963 Lotus 23B of Chris Jolley and the 1962 Lotus 23B of Kelvin Jones at Foulstons chicane.

On 10 October 2016 I showed photographs of two Elva Mk7s at the Gold Cup meeting at Oulton Park in 2005.
