First I ever heard of them. I was talking to the owner and he was filling me in on the history. He knew quite a lot. It looked pretty sharp going through paces. I missed focus on this one, but I still like the car.
Looks great to me!
(I don't use magnifying glasses.)
Excellent panning shot! That car looks only a bit bigger than a go kart!

I like the Elva too, looks like it would be a great ride! Another fun image.
I remember them. Does that make me ancient
Another great capture, Keeth.

I too remember the Elva...! And yes, very fast, 0 to 60mph/3sec.
Makes it look faster & the 66 helps it look in focus if not Pixel peeping.
Nice photo.

Great shot π₯π₯π₯π₯π₯ - but are his feet touching the headlights, Keeth
Thanks everyone, I had fun shooting it.

Great shot! Any idea which model Elva that is? Tom Grudovich drove the same model to 4th at the 2021 Sebring Classic, but it doesnβt list the model Elva in the entry list. Itβs front engined, and the double βbumpsβ in the hood suggest either the 1100 or 1500cc Coventry Climax engine, probably built between 1959 and 1961 but not sure and very curious.
