Chassis 7191                       

This is a 1928 FD type two seater, originally with a Le Mans body.  The car was owned by Tony Cox for some 25 years, during which time it was restored and a new TT Replica body constructed (as the original had long since disappeared).  In the hands of Gerry Michelmore, this car was the first Alvis FWD to win a race in 53 years, at the 1986 VSCC Donington Park meeting.
