Ray Bell should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
"Space frame" is being generous. The frame is a multi-tube frame with some triangulation and some bays stiffened by the aluminium sheeting riveted on to cover them.

Most if not all were built with 1275cc Cooper S engines, and I think the production period was significantly longer, perhaps twenty years longer. I'm not sure they qualify as kit cars, either, as it's possible they were all sold complete. There must have been a reasonable number build, as they have raced in Production Sports Car racing in Australia.
