This is a car that took part
in a Shell Historic Ferrari Maserati Challenge race at the VSCC's Richard
Seaman Memorial Trophies meeting at Donington Park in June 2003.

It's the 1971 Ferrari 712
Can-Am of Carlos Monteverde, driven at this meeting by David Franklin, and
pictured here in the pit garage. The programme of the event had this note about
the race by Neil F Murray:
'These disc braked cars are
well out of VSCC territory, thus making me unqualified to pass comment on them.
However, one thing that I can guarantee you is that they will be extremely
swift, with David Franklin's Can Am car of nearly 7 litres being near the
front, if not out in front.'
The car started life in 1970
as a Ferrari 512 S but was converted to 712 specs in 1971, and its chassis
number is 1010.
