If it is a 1970 De Sanctis,better check what size engine it has.'70 was last year of the one litre 'screamers'Sounds like this one may have been fitted with a 1600cc Alfa for the 1971-73 F3.In which case it would be eligable for historic F3. They were certainly competitive in Italian F3-I will see if I can find some results if you are that interested.

this is what I thought.
so it is basically a very uncompetitive car for Historic F3 as it is wingless 1600 rather than 2 litre and on treaded tyres!
I saw a very pretty Ensign with a Lous twin cam for sale for over two years for the same reason! its a pity that the 1600 class is almost non existant
