1959 Alexis HF1 FJ

This car took part in the Historic Formula Junior Front Engine car race at the Gold Cup meeting at Oulton Park in August 2018, and I took these photographs during the qualifying sessions on the Saturday of the 3-day Bank Holiday Weekend meeting.
It's Duncan Rabagliati's 1959 Alexis Mk1, chassis HF1, with a 4-cylinder 1,098cc BMC A series engine. This was the first car built by Bill Harris and Alex Francis who went on to produce rear engined Formula Junior cars and a series of Formula 2, Formula 3 and Formula Ford cars.
Here's Duncan Rabagliati on the exit of Lodge Corner during his qualifying session.
