Elva 1957 MK.II 100/40
I'm trying to trace the history of my car and hope that someone out there will be able to fill in some gaps. Info known so far: -
I bought 100/40 in March 2007 Dec 2004 Richard Meyer bought car from the estate of Richard Miller in a fully restored (virtually) state. After having it extensively overhauled competed in severall VSCCA events throughout 2005/6 April 1981 Richard Miller acquired car from Ed Dewell as a restoration project. Fully restored 100/40 - no paint, bare alloy without head fairing Dec '77 Ed Dewell acquired car from John Stanger with a blown engine ???? John Stanger acquired car from Robert Rubel Aug '70 Robert Rubel acquired car from Daniel Werner Aug '66 Daniel Werner aquired car from William Stelcher 1964/5 William Stelcher acquired car from Pat Tomah and competed in severall races in '65/6 - was BRG in colour and ran with a head fairing which it is believed was as it left the factory So far I have communicated with Ed Dewell and Bill Stelcher. Both of whom claim (independently) that 100/40 was an ex-works car and one of three that ran at Le Mans and Sebring. So far, I have been unable to find any record confirming that any Elva MK.II ran at Le Mans although there was an entry in 1957 (Brow Crim / Tony Palmer-Morewood) but no record of it having competed. Any information would be very much appreciated. Cheers Anthony |

Since this request is also on the Elva archive thread, I've moved this to the main forum.
