Built in Southland, NZ to Mark 1 specs in the late 90’s The car was given Chassis number 71 by Alan Staniforth 20th Sept 2001 Runs a 1380cc motor which was fully rebuilt, including full flow oiling system, by Lynn Rogers Automotive, Auckland, NZ. They are the recognised Gurus for BMC race engines. I have the specs for this available. I don’t know the horsepower rating. All I know is I specified an engine with torque more than horsepower as I wanted power at lower revs. FYI I have receipts for the head @ $3,000 and block @ $6,800. The car has only done one hillclimb (Sept 2015) on this motor since the rebuild. This is due to failing health. Since then it has sat in storage, in a plastic bag with large amount of silica gel, to keep it dry. It has been removed regularly for short runs. Please note, it is built to the original specs, so still has BMC running gear; drum brakes, 1300 gearbox, axles and diff, 10 inch wheels etc. Herald rack and pinion. Minimal spares come with the car. An open (garden style) trailer is available if required which has been modified to carry the car. The Terrapin comes with a transporting cover. Comes with NZ Motorsport Log Book and C.O.D I am looking for offers as I don’t really know what it’s worth. I do know it’s a thrill a minute to drive!
