A period magnesium Lotus 18 wheel taken from chassis #372, a car which Jim Clark won his first single seater race at Brands Hatch in the Kentish 200 in August 1960. The car was also raced by Trevor Taylor and then Innes Ireland to win the US Grand Prix, the first World Championship victory for Team Lotus!

The original wheel which has picked up damage later in its life was replaced and kept by the owner at the time. Great provenance and something that would make a great display piece.

This lot is located in the United Kingdom.
