Description
Le Mans Coupes is excited to present the Lola T70 MK3 Spyder, chassis number SL73/ 104, for sale on behalf of its current owner.
Originating from the legendary GT40 lineage and developed from the Lola MK6 GT, the Lola T70 is a renowned name in the racing world. Known for its impressive track record both historically and in modern racing, the T70 remains a favourite among racing enthusiasts. Its relatively low running and maintenance costs, combined with its stunning design, make it a practical choice for competing against the likes of Porsche and Ferrari.
Built in 1967, Chassis SL73/ 104 has a rich history, including podium finishes in its debut season in the USRRC with a 2nd place at the Laguna Seca 200 and 3rd at Bridgehampton, driven by Mike Goth. It also had strong performances in several Can-Am races in '67 and '68 with Bud Morley, achieving multiple 4th and 5th place finishes.
The car's complete racing history is documented in John Starkey's book "Lola T70: The Racing History & Individual Chassis Record," with relevant pages available in the gallery below. The car has a fully documented ownership history, including a period in Mac McClendon's collection where it underwent a full restoration in 2007.
In addition to its notable racing career, this T70 is UK road-registered, making it the ultimate 1960s prototype and a rare opportunity to stand out at any event you attend. You can even test components without needing to book track time. Delivered in Spyder format and road spec, this car has undergone a thorough service and inspection in preparation for sale. A pre-sale report will detail the requirements to obtain FIA HTP papers, enabling it to compete in prestigious historic races worldwide.
