Racing Atom ready for restoration
One of the most eye-catching resto projects at the NEC was Martin Collins’ Fairthorpe Atom Major. Built in 1959, the car was raced at the Autosport three hours of the same year, with Chris Meek behind the wheel. The four-cylinder engine was also fitted with a supercharger to increase its straight line speed and acceleration. Until recently only one Atom Major was known to exist, but the numbers doubled when this example was found in a garage, where it had sat for over 40 years.
