RE : TXH 941,
I saw it auctioned at H and H in Buxton in July 2019. Sold for circa £23.5k, which may have included buyer's premium and vat.

Built in November 1957 and started life in February 1958 in California, was raced late 50's and through 60's. Laid up 1971 - 84, raced periodically thereafter before being repatriated in 1995. Contested Goodwood Revival in 1999.

Doesn't appear to have been taxed since purchase last year. Fairly highly modified.
