The Beast needs a new home. Garage is gone.

It may not be the prettiest, but it will be the most entertaining car you have ever driven.

Car is complete , but less a  drivetrain.  i was running a Hewland FT200  and dry sump, aluminum 4.0 Rover, but it is ready for your wildest ideas..turbo bike power, hgh reving 60 degree V6, Suburu engine gearbox.

Original chassis was a Techno F2 or F3 that was heavily modified by Jim McKamy with aluminum Old V8 power and a wing worthy of a triplane. Heavily re-engineered, re-constructed by the current owner and all rod ends, critical parts, fasteners were replaced with new.

Calgary, Alberta   Shipping cross border is still possible, and there are some local forum members i bet would inspect on buyers behalf. 

Asking $3500 US for the roller with all spare wheels, sidepods with rads and fuel tanks. All slicks are dead and belts outdated.

A Tilton flywheel, clutch, Rover headers, rare Harcourt intake etc available as separate package.

Jim McKamey........there's a name I haven't heard in a long time. He put those 215 aluminum V8s in some interesting cars.

Check out my parts post for most pieces needed to replicate the  4.0 or build a de-stroked 3.0 screamer. Borders still open for shipping. Cheap to ship to Sweetgrass Montana. Just sayin’/enabling.

He used to bring his Fiero to our local events about once per year. He was crazy fast & im thinking he was probably near 70 by then.

Okay let's get serious about this. What kind of condition is it in now? What uprights/suspension? Wheels and brakes? Spares included?

All rod ends, critical fasteners, were new or inspected within 2 events

uprights, steering rack are original Tecno, magnesium. ( probably  worth $$$ to restorer)

Front brakes are original Girling AR, rears are a modern ICP Ld20 replacement.

13 x 10 3 piece front x 4  

13 x 13  3 Revolution? 3 piece  x  2

13x 12 original Tecno 1piece magniesium wheels  ( display or need NDT before use) 

includes a now outdated 6 point, rads, 

Car had passed tech at hillclimb and road race before the FT200 Hewland trans  exploded.

Tires are unusable. John the tire guy was my source of inexpensive Formula Atlantic qualifier scrubs.

A simple fabrication will be needed to replace mount for the upper rear suspension that previously attached to gearbox.
