Dr Enderby’s special.
My Lola had the same body from the same moulds that still exist.
Dr E offered me the use of the moulds about 15 years ago.

The body went down to the tip 3 months before I bought the Lola.

My Lola was raced a few times with the pink coloured Gaia.

Had the great pleasure to talk about my Lola at Shelsley Walsh this lunchtime with Marcus Pye.

It’s actually a Sicily link.
They use a triskellien too/ like Isle of Mann it’s a 3 cape island.
Have this on the wing of all of my cars.
Siculamente means “Sicilian mindset” in local slang.
You know I love a bit of Sicily ;-)
