This car's rear suspension uses the 'Half Shaft' to complete the upper wishbone. It was purchased new from the Lotus factory by Lionel Garza of Monterey Mexico. It was raced in Mexico during the Formula Junior era, 1959-1963. In 1983 the car was imported into the USA by Alex Bollinger and driven in vintage racing events by his wife Barbara until 1988. Between 1988 and 2004 the car was in storage. In 2004 the car was given a minor restoration and resumed competition in vintage racing events.
