Toothpaste Tube F1 car

It’s an F1 car, believe it or not....  it actually raced, albeit not a very successful one.  It’s the Connaught Type B of 1957-58, also known as the “toothpaste tube”... it’s not very hard to figure out why hehehe.  At the wheel in this picture is Briton Stuart Lewis-Evans

Here is the car in full color, at Monaco, where it finished 4^th.  It was the second best ever result for the team.
