Picture taken during one of those Six Hour Le Mans endurance races?

My source gives a year but doesn't mention a particular event.

It's Pegasus, built by Bob Annear. The Holden unit was swapped later on for a Peugeot engine. Puzzle picture taken in 1960.

Yes, again supernatural Wendax wins the point.

But as I told before it can help to find another...

What is this car called, who built it, and what was the engine?

tobytwirl · « **Reply #32 on:** September 18, 2016, 08:31:24 PM »

is it Holden powered?

I don't know what engine is fitted in the puzzle photo, but the car started life with a Holden engine, yes.

was it originally Merv Dudley's BRM Morgan, built by Bill Richards, and rebuilt as the Repco-Holden Spl.

Sorry, but no. I think we've probably had the Repco-Holden before.

Not New Zealand.

Was the builder known for other cars ?

I don't know. Sorry.

(I have just discovered that this car has been a previous puzzle. It didn't register the first time I did a search, but it's there now! Maybe this will make it easier to identify)

That's the one. Well found. I don't know which engine is fitted at the time of this photo!

Another point for you, and I'll merge the puzzles. The search facility of AP is surely a mysterious thing.

Thanks for my 651st point !
