Not sure if it is old enough or even an homologated car. I guess it depends on what series you want to enter.

I think most historics come under Appendix K regulations. These define some periods, for example Pre 1965, so in TVR speak this is the Grantura Mk3 which started LeMans in 1963, so has a international profile, and the 289 Griffith 200, of which various discussions have taken place on here before. Three Granturas were at Classic LeMans this year, and at least one Griffith joined some Grannies in the Classic Silverstone races. At both events I think the newest cars were around 1980. Other non international events may not require a technical or historic passport.
