Early Corse S in Italy HERE (https://plus.google.com/photos/116086105651159399677/albums/5915227297076313873)

There's also a pretty well damaged Original tub in the other gallery.

Assuming this is Roberto's place, there are others on here who will know for sure.

Was cooling an issue on it?

Not a lot of room at the front for air!

Could it be the David Boorer car? The owner moved to France, but wasn't able to register his twin cam powered red Corse S with Compomotive 5 spoke wheels.
See newsletter issue 52 or 53.

I'm more sure that it is the following car:
Advertised for sale by Paul Fletcher from Cardiff on page 30 of newsletter issue 65.
There's a photo, and everything is exactly the same (lighting, interior colour, door mirrors etc.)
Only £5000 !

Top marks Chris, undoubtedly the one, you can even see in the new pics where the stickers have been peeled from the centre tub just behind the door.
Only £5000 but looks like it might have had a blown (up) engine at the time.

Hi Gerard,
They're not two and the same then? My second guess does look 100% certain though.
You've got a narrow arched Hawk in CF livery too, have'nt you? Or am I loosing my marbles?
