Description

A very rare car made for racing from day one. Prepared by BMC Sweden Racing department 1962-1963 to be raced by BMC professional drivers in the Swedish championship.
It was driven by many famous drivers like ex F1 driver Reine Wisell. Reine raced the complete 1965 season with very good results.
Today the car is restored back to 1965 specifications exactly as used by Wisell. Rear wings, doors and coupe is made of aluminium. Front is fiberglass. Telescopic shocks in front and coilovers at the rear. Engine prepared by Peter May. FIA approved HTP until 2032
More detailed info on - details above bought the car first time 1969 and used it as a road car. After some years I trade it for a very nice MGB and not until 1999 I bought it back again and restored it as is today. The restoration was followed by Reine Wisell and he was helping me to find the correct level of restoration to make it as contemporay as possible.
I have been racing it since 2006 and I guarantee that it is extremely fun to drive!
