Great action shot - I'd seen that photo before somewhere.
However please note Paul that this is a Lester-MG (not Riley) in those days.

Photo of the coupe under construction. The source describes it as a 'Lester M15 Coupe'

Another photo of one of these cars in the Lester workshop. Looks like an MG XPAG engine in the open chassis.
I must be right - that's what it says on Wikipedia
