| Had
begun all 1947 as the young franc G. Nichols, straight
from the military service to freshly dismiss, in Westham a
small workshop created. |
| In
Bexhill there was larger trailer shank for engine haven.
Nichols took itself this too uses, in that it
predominantly on the building of racing vehicles
concentrated. |
| After
the Nichols first some attempts with a Lotus VI, was he
undertook soon in the situation to change chassis at will
depending upon which for which purpose they were meant. |
| 1955
it began to manufacture a quite similar chassis – the
birth of the Elva. |
| Success
did not remain out and already few time later won a Elva
than first British vehicle an international running –
fire the Boxing Day 1959 '. 1960, already in the following
year, won Charlie Kolb in a Elva MK 1 the American Formula
junior Championship. |
| Into
the today's time the popularity of the Elva held itself
with the enthusiasts of historical racing. |
| The
vehicle offered here is in excellent condition. |
| | | Elva
– the exotic sound of this name leads itself off from
French " elle va ", which runs in the English just
as meant as "she goes" and into German "sie
läuft". |
| The
small workshop quite successfully worked, so that it shifted
its company headquarters already soon into the larger
premises after Bexhill. |
| So
one had to wait not for a long time, until the first racing
meeting on civilian roads took place. One did not have a
racing course here yet. |
| From
Mike Chapman, it could do, ordered it from Goodwood it a CSM
'. Very fast Nichols recognized that after some improvements
in the chassis still better marked themselves this small
vehicle out would leave. |
| In
April 1959 a Elva MK 1 started as the first English vehicle
with the meeting of the U.K. Formula junior. |
| The
reports on successes of the small racing car from England
spread like a run fire. From America came now more and more
orders for the Elva, so that the name was in the racing
circles of the United States soon in all mouth. |
| Although
few were not produced, most are the change of the models to
the victim please and it became heavy to find really good
vehicles with history. |
| The
price is affordable and it gives meanwhile many historical
running meetings with application type of this quick Formula
junior. |
