This car appeared at the Richard Seaman Memorial Trophies meeting at Oulton Park in June 1993, taking part in the Twelve Lap 1950's Sports Car Race.
It's Ron Gammons' 1958 V8 engined 5,424cc Devin, and a note about the car in the programme of the event says this about it:
Fancied runners in the race are Frank Sytner's 1957 D-type Jaguar, American Stephen Griswold's 1958 Lister Chevrolet and Ron Gammons' 1958 Devin. The latter has a chassis designed and built in Belfast by Irishman Malcolm MacGregor, with a glass-fibre body designed and built by American Bill Devin in California and a V8 engine by Chevrolet of Detroit. Only about 15 were made.
