1958 BUCKLER BB 100 Backbone
It is the only one made and still surviving in this shape, in original condition, completely untouched and running (only one brake needs to be repaired as the car was not used in the last 2-3 years). The car comes with plenty of documentation about its racing history in England (it raced many times in Silverstone), original British documents (v5), this car was owned by Malcolm Buckler himself, as stated in the papers!! The body is aluminium made by John Offord from Crowthorn, it is a 2 seater which could become a single seater by closing down the passengers space.The Engine is a Ford 100E, same like the Lotus 11 has: 1172cc, The weight is 380KG.
My car in Silverstone circuit in 1958¦.. the Buckler Register used this picture for the Christmas Greetings card this year !! It shows the car during one of the very early races as it has no paint yet ¦ plate number is still the one the car has today !!
