It's rear-engined. Figure 1200lb and 66-33% weight distribution. That would be 400 pounds. He probably had two guys help with the lift who stepped out of the frame. Probably.

I'm not a fan of the Fad T (no elbow room), either; but I used to watch 77 Sunset Strip in black and white. OTOH it's a Volksrod.

The HAMB thread it's linked from settled on the Lotus 6 or 7 clones. Arragonis will appreciate that. There was a cut-off date in the racing class of 1955, so the Lotus 6 (1952) qualifies, but the Seven (with the clamshell fenders) doesn't.
