Mr. DeMoura 1963 Mini Cooper S racing car

Mr. Nelson DeMoura bought in 1966 in Lisbon this Cooper S than he and his wife raced back in the days, the car was for sale for €55.000 some time ago I believe that lies in some private collection now. I leave here some pictures of the car that I think is a quite nice car.

Mr. DeMoura was the manufacteur of the famous DeMoura Steering wheels, that were adopted by Alpine Renault on it´s 310 series(oem) and Rally team, as well as the Datsun SSS from Japan back in the days. He made a stering wheel for Mini Cooper that you can see in the pictures. These are quite rare to find these days. Well nice Cooper S are also rare to find :).

All the best
