1936 Maserati 6CM

This car took part in the Richard Seaman Memorial Historic Trophy Race at the Vintage Sports Car Club's meeting at Oulton Park in June 1970.
It's the 1937 Maserati 6CM of Ray Fielding with a supercharged 6-cylinder inline 1,493cc engine. It is chassis 1540 and was at one time part of the Doune Motor Museum collection. The red car behind it is Lord Doune's 1930 Maserati 8C, chassis 2514, that was driven by Ray Fielding in the Richard Seaman Memorial Vintage Trophy Race. The programme of the event says this about the car:

'.....also in the third row is a most welcome dark horse in the form of a rare 1930 blown 8C 2½ litre Grand Prix Maserati. This car was brought over from Switzerland by Lord Doune, famous for his Scottish museum of Sports and racing cars and the Doune hill climb course, who has entered the car to be driven by Ray Fielding.'
