That is an absolutely terrific looking car, Dave! :handgestures-thumbup: :handgestures-thumbup:
The long can motor is not too much torque for the car coming out of the corners? Oops, make that a slimline motor and, no concern about the torque on that one...........! :oops:
Looks too good to race!!
I had the 1:1 car in Healey blue with cream coves; MK1 - the "hot foot" Healey.

That's just stunning chassis and modeling-wise!
What's the motor bracket? BWA? Your own fabrication?

Hi Guys, Thank You for the comments, this was a real fun build.
I used the slimline motor to allow plenty of room for the interior and to make it easier to drive been a narrow-ish car.
The motor bracket was bent an drilled from a piece of K&S plate.
All the best guys - Dave and Paul.

That is just the coolest looking version of the big Healey, my all time favourite car.
