Specialist Notes

Elva (from French “elle va” or “she goes”) was founded in 1955 by Frank G. Nichols. His intention was to build a low cost sports racing car; in 1954 the first model was produced using Standard front and Ford Anglia rear suspension with an OHV conversion of a Ford 10 engine. It was, however, made up of different and varying car components. It went through various changes up to 1959 when “Mark V” was designed for Formula Junior events and had either DKW or BMC engines, as with this car (BMC “A” series engine 1098 cc), in a tubular steel chassis and was extremely successful until the Formula was taken over by rear engine cars. Just over 100 Elva 100’s were believed to have been constructed between 1959 and 1960 with possibly around 20 still competing regularly today.
