Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary

Condition
6
The car participated in the 1963 Le Mans 24 Hours race and completed it, although it did not finish due to mechanical issues (cylinder head gasket blowing). It has undergone restoration, retaining original elements, but the original engine is conserved and not currently in the car. The current wheels are replicas, and the original magnesium wheels will be passed on to the buyer. While it has a continuous history and is considered the most original surviving example, the mechanical issues during the race and the replacement of the original engine indicate it requires some reconditioning and is not in perfect or near-perfect condition.

Designed by Jacques Hubert, this tiny car given the name Djet, was innovative for its mid-positioned Renault engine and magnesium wheels.
The Djet had been designed purely to compete in the GT class.
