Finished from the factory in black and red, the car was stripped to bare metal and underwent rust repairs prior to a repaint during the refurbishment. Exterior features include a black soft top, a black tonneau cover, louvered hood with a leather tie-down strap, Lucas front driving lamps, an adjustable-rake windshield, and fender-mounted side mirrors.
Chrome 15” wire wheels are secured by two-eared knock-off spinners and mounted with 185/70 Vredestein Sprint Classic tires. A matching spare is found in the trunk. Braking is through drums at all four corners, and the car features an independent front suspension.
The cabin houses seats trimmed in red leather with color-coordinated door panels and carpets protected by black rubber mats. Appointments include lap belts, a dash-mounted rear-view mirror, a passenger-side grab handle, and a wood shift knob.
A banjo-style steering wheel sits ahead of Smiths instrumentation that includes a 120-mph speedometer, a 6k-rpm tachometer, and auxiliary gauges. The five-digit odometer shows approximately 2k miles, around 100 of which have been added during current ownership. Total mileage is unknown.
The 2,660cc inline-four is equipped with dual SU carburetors and sends power to the rear wheels via a four-speed manual gearbox with overdrive. An oil change was performed in April 2022.
The engine block tag is shown above.

The BMIHT certificate lists the vehicle as a factory-built 100M and indicates the factory colors, options, and identification numbers. A photo of the 100M Le Mans Registry certificate is shown in the gallery.
