Willment-Climax

This car is listed in the programme of the Coys International Historic Festival meeting at Silverstone in July 1994 as number 69 in the Classic Sports Car Race.
This is the 1956 Willment which has a 1,963cc FPF 4-cylinder inline Climax engine, and was then owned by Hugh Taylor who also had a Jaguar C-Type which he drove in this race instead of the Willment. The DVLA say that Willment currently has the registration number LSL893, and the number PUW4 is now that of a 3,442cc 1954 Jaguar.

On 14 January 2017 I showed a photograph of Hugh Taylor's Jaguar C-Type in front of the Willment at this meeting, and on 19 December 2015 I showed a photograph of the Willment at Oulton Park in 1996.
