A LESSER SPOTTED WESTFIELD MODEL
Dec 7th
People always associate Westfield with their Lotus Seven-inspired model, Eleven replica and latterly the Chesil Speedster. However, there have been a large handful of other models over the years that didn’t quite catch on for whatever reason.
One of these was the Grand Prix Midget of 1996 – a car that was inspired by the Grand Prix Midget racers pioneered in the USA in Los Angeles in 1933 and soon spread to other parts of the world such as Australia, New Zealand and the UK.
The Westfield GP Midget was originally developed by well-known racer, Martin Lyon and Eddy Ricketts, using a More >
