    Default Early 60s Beach M3B

    This Beach came to us in parts so that we could turn it into a rolling chassis. Frame has been inspected to make sure everything is good, new gray paint. Body work is all new with nice new white paint. Comes with Hewland MK8, Case has been welded but gearbox appears complete and working. new fuel cell mounted in side pod, Suspension freshly plated with new rod ends. Set up for Twin Cam or FF engine but has Imp engine mounts too. Radiator checked and OKed. New coolant tubing and silicone hoses. Revolution wheels. Nose pivots up for access, Tail is removable. Chassis number is 3-005. The car is ready to install an engine, finish up some details and go racing. If you would like to run with the Lotus 23s and Elvas at a fraction of the cost, you should check this one out. More photos available, just ask.

    A Beach like this one ran the Sebring 12 Hour in the late 60's. Us V Dub folks cheered it on against all the prototypes etc. I think it made it 10 hours.
    At some point during the day they cut a hole in the bodywork above the driver's feet because at speed the body was pushed down and trapping the top of his foot. Every lap going into the hairpin (where we were camped) one could see the top of his shoe dancing on the pedals.
    Great memories.
