Interesting.

I'm not a great fan of swaps but the Zetek in this is kind of setup might have better balance than the big-engine conversions.

The paint, wheels and body-mods isn't for me at all.

Still, it's clearly well-done.

I saw this 2.3 Ford-powered Sunbeam at Lime Rock last week. For sale too.

John did an outstanding job on this car.The body was cut down the middle and widened.I thought he had blew the motor and gave up on this car.Now I do not know if he did the engine over.I guess he must have

As to power there are quite few Sunbeams that are doing 150 plus in the 1/4 mile

My 62 Sunbeam has the ford racing 302 with too much power
The Lister has a 351 Windsor and is capable of 140 MPH .but I chickened out at 125 MPH

My wife likes our 29 ford roadster as I can pass at will.If out in the Sunbeams and I down shift she will say no you're not

Enjoy the day
