The Barrett-Jackson auction at Palm Beach in April has what I think is a
knock-off of UJB 142 listed as Lot 699. The listing description follows:
"An extensive body-off restoration was completed on this car to model the 1960
works car #20 UJB-142 that finished fourth at Sebring in 1960. Tom Rocke,
Healey Lane Restoration of Riverside, California, finished the newly restored
car exclusively for the Barrett-Jackson West Palm Beach Florida Auction.
Restoration features of this car include an exterior finish of DuPont 2-stage
Dark British Racing Green paint, black interior with ventilated 3000 Sebring
front seats, the rare ultra tulip-type engine with intake and factory works
exhaust, tri-carbureted HD-8 2" carburetors to help produce the engine's
190hp, 6-blade fan, 4-row radiator, jet coated flowed intake and exhaust
components, exterior intake cooling, alloy front and back shroud member as
well as boot lid, factory lightweight fiberglass top, center-lock rally
wheels, BJ8 ventilated disc racing brakes in front, rally front grille and
road lights. This car qualifies for all State Grand-type rallies.
The car comes with fully photo documented restoration and British Heritage
Industry Motor Trust certificate."
Amazing what comes out of the wood work.
