Tour de France type (alike Bernard Consten's one).
Special equipement including:
- Mk2 buckets
- Nardi steering wheel
- Speed Pilot
- triple gas tank with 2 fast Le Mans gas tank cap
- hood straps
- shorter front bumper (to allow wider racing tires)
- HD8 carbs
- special exhaust line and pipes
- body and springs reinforcements
- front brakes air vents
May be the only LHD factory racer still around.
