You've got the right car there, although it didn't resurface in 1966.
i believe the bodywork is from somewhat later than that but the information is a bit scant.
Have another look at that date, and in the meantime it's locked for you.
Refered to as 1954, so presume made in 1954 ;D
?Resurfaced 1966? I think BDC refer to the car being found again in 66.
I have ref. of it being at Silverstone in 2009 in the hands of Tom McWhirter
I'll try and dig deeper
I think really you've solved this as you've given me what I asked for: It is a Tojeiro-Bristol with a 2-litre Bristol engine built in 1954 or 1955.
I have it as resurfacing again in the mid 1990s and it first appeared in its (almost completed) restored form in 1996 at a Bristol Owners' Club event.
Well done!
