Yes, a Chinook Mk 2 from Canada, built by the Fejer brothers. Apparently Rudy Fejer, one of the brothers was a Hungarian motorcycle champion aged 14. He emigrated to Australia after the 1956 revolution and then went to Canada. He celebrated his 90th birthday in August. I conducted 6 hours of interview with him recently and most of it will be available on the Old Racing Cars website a bit later.
