\u201cThe thing that I can do well that I\u2019ve done with a number of other racecars is that I can buy them in boxes and get them back together.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
According to Duncan, \u201cI discovered the site a year ago and it\u2019s a great thing. They always have some good cars and they seem to manage to make the site interesting. I get an email from them every morning with postings for new cars. When I saw the Unicorn for sale, I got real excited. My racing started in the Bay Area a long time ago, and I liked the idea that the car was built locally. I also have another car at the other end of the spectrum\u2014a 1966 USRRC car that I\u2019m restoring that was also built in the Bay Area. At 70, I figure I\u2019d better get that car restored before I\u2019m too old to drive it. After that, I\u2019ll fix up the Unicorn and race that one.\u201d<\/p>\n
Duncan prefers to buy projects and, by his own account, the Unicorn is in need of some serious attention. He said, \u201cThe thing that I can do well that I\u2019ve done with a number of other racecars is that I can buy them in boxes and get them back together.\u201d<\/p>\n
Along with the car and boxes of parts, Duncan received a number of period photographs and a copy of the Validation Study. According to this document, \u201cJohn Murphy said this car was seen by Colin Chapman in the fifties and was rumored to have influenced the Lotus Mk 6.\u201d<\/p>\n
