This car took part in the 'Cars Built before 1935' class in the HGPCA Pre-1961 Grand Prix Cars race at the Historic Sports Car Club's Gold Cup meeting at Oulton Park in August 2002.
It's the 1927 Amilcar CO of Belgian Paul Grant, and has a supercharged 1100cc 6-cylinder inline engine. Manufactured in St Denis, Paris the Amilcar concern was founded in 1921 and the factory closed in 1934 but in that time it built up a short but successful racing history. There's an Amilcar register that was formed in 1955 and you can read about it here.
