Of course, it is actually Rod Jolley's Lister-Jaguar (Ford??) Monza, a special built for the 1958 USA-Europe race held at Monza. Here are two pics of the car, one taken last year at Silverstone, and one in 1989, when the car was still owned by somebody in Germany. Apparently another forum member was already showing keen interest in the car back then.Originally Posted by Matra et Alpine

DAMN Beat me to it by 7 minutes
Realised it had to be a special for it not to be clear in my memory !!!!!!
The Ford comment threw me.
It was orignally a 1 1/2 seater version of a D-type !!! Then converted to full single seater open wheel.

Here's the only reasonable moving shot I have of the car unfortunately.
Asif I'll get more shots up some time in the near future.
judging from the helmet it is Rod Jolley in the car....Originally Posted by Sauc3
