About this car
This is a Lister Knobbly continuation car, built to the original tool-room standards of the 2014 programme and carrying chassis number BHL160C. Its aluminium body is a one-off, taken from a CAD scan of the successful period car YOB 575. It has lower, longer wings, twin bonnet air intakes, a rear ventilated panel and the panels for a long or short range fuel tank.
The Jaguar 3.8-litre engine was built by historic Jaguar racing specialists Riedling and Mouser. It produces 325 bhp at the wheels and breathes through triple Weber 45 DCO3 carburettors. Fresh FIA HTP papers have been issued and remain valid until 2027.
The car was raced in 2025 by the selling dealer with Tim Crighton driving. It finished 4th overall and second in class in the Stirling Moss Trophy at the Donington Historic Festival, then 5th overall and third in class at the Silverstone Festival. It is offered as a race-ready car and the price is on application.
