No Reserve: Lotus 19 Monte Carlo Re-Creation by Tolman Motorsport

A distinctive race car replica, this 1963 Lotus 19 was meticulously crafted by Tolman Motorsport in Costa Mesa, California. Known as the "Monte Carlo Re-Creation," it honors the historic Lotus 19 that raced at the Monte Carlo Rally in 1963. This hand-built vehicle showcases its British racing roots with a sleek body constructed from lightweight aluminum, resembling the original's distinct curves. Underneath the hood lies a potent Coventry Climax FWMV V8 engine, mated to a close-ratio Hewland FT200 gearbox, all meticulously prepared to deliver authentic vintage race car performance and handling. To celebrate its motorsports heritage, each of only ten planned builds will come numbered and signed by legendary driver Jim Clark's nephew, Simon Clark. This is more than just a replica; it's a tribute to speed and endurance from an era when heroes and their machines pushed the limits on the tracks of Monte Carlo.
