The Heron-Alfa Romeo from 1960 ?

Not the Heron, but another one of the many Alfa-powered single-seaters from southern Africa. I'm really sorry for misleading you about the country of origin - let's just say it borders the Rainbow Nation.

You've got it! It was a copy of an LDS which itself was a copy of a Cooper. The photo was taken at Kumalo track. The car was sometimes known as the Realpha.
