Chassis Number: 4L10061
This sporting little Elva Mk IV sports racer is a well-known competitor in both period and contemporary vintage racing. Chassis no. 4L10061, offered here, had its first outing at the 1959 Sebring 12 Hours race, where it was entered by Elva Engineering as a factory racer. It fared remarkable well, finishing 2nd in class.
The consignor, a prominent collector of sports, racing and special-interest cars, purchased the car in 2017, and has since shown the Elva at events including the Amelia Island Concours. One of the most attractive, aggressive and aerodynamically effective front-engined, drum-braked sports racers, this Elva Mk IV Climax sports racer should prove immediately competitive and a valued entrant in the most desirable historic racing events.
