This re-creation is based on the original Lotus 19 bearing chassis number 19-965, which was delivered new to Mecom Racing Team in Texas and raced with an Oldsmobile V8. This replica’s chassis is said to have initially been built by Ken Nichols in Devon, UK, prior to being acquired by Roy Lane. The chassis was stripped and rebuilt during the build by Tolman Motorsport, who used measurements from an existing original Lotus 19 chassis and factory drawings to fabricate a new front end and modify the side pods and mounting points for the suspension and powertrain. Aircraft aluminum was used for the stressed floor panel, and a T45 roll hoop was added.
