"My brother (Robert) now owns the car after our father owned and drove it from late 1960s (i.e. staying in the Hase family since its purchase in late 1960s - Somerset, England) - After over 30 years off the road, it has recently been re-built and was driven to the BDC Silverstone August 2019 event."
