The new addition to the stable.

I purchased this car from John Kitchen on 16 March 2012. It is in a very poor state and as you can see from the photos it needs a lot of work and will take some time. The first photos were taken by myself in 2010 when I first looked at the car but I wasn't able to purchase it at the time. Forward 2 years and a deal is struck. The car was manufactured in May or June 1968.
The car has had several owners as follows- John Sever 69-73, John Spry 73-77, Ben Emmelkamp 1978, Andrew Kubienski 78-82, Ara Vartoukian 82-2006 and John Kitchen 2006-2012. The first 3 photos show the cars condition now and the last 2 show what it looked like in the 1980's
Outside for years.
Unmistakably a Gordini.
The engine saw use in Johns R10 for a while.
The car in the 80's.
