I have a one off rear engined H/Mod or D/Sports racer that was built in 1964, so it's small bore, it came to me sans any bodywork. I have acquired a nose
section that is very much like the original, but now I need an engine cover. So, I'm looking for an used rear engine cover that can be made to fit. Engine
covers that might fit the bill are: Genie MK 3/4, Bobsy SR2/3, Webster small bore sports racer, or maybe even a Elva MK6 could be modified to look correct.

David,
Good for you. Preserving a Hmod or Dsr is a noble act, for these cars represented the peak of home-bult race car technology. In reality, they were miniature precidents to CanAm cars. I have documentation of many designs of the 50s and early 60s. While in the Army 66-68 I conceived a car with a plywood body, powered by a Merc. outboard. Never got off paper.... What is yours' powered by? A prominent Club member recently completed restoration of a significant series-built sports racer, but unfortunately disowned the orginal SAAB engine for a run-of-the-mill inline 4! (But I also like Crosley-powered cars.) Maybe a Club member would let you pull a mold off thier car's suitable rear bodywork. Best, and Bvrooom {2-strok sound], Andy Keller |
