Vehicle History
Remarks
The Caterham was purchased in 1993 by another person (I have the original receipts). It looks like it was started to be built but then for unknown reasons the car was stored for the next 25-30 years. I acquired the car in 2022 but it was all in boxes. Over the last two years I have had someone build the car back up, we have been buying new parts where required.
