The first special I built 572 BVY was a Big 7 chassis with an OHV Reliant 700cc engine.  On 15" wheels it went very well, it would spin the rear wheels in third gear on a wet road.  Speeds in the gears were approx. 20, 40, 60 and 80mph, quite fast enough.  The Girling brakes were very good indeed.
I started with a restored chassis from Chris Dalby at Kirby Wiske, I would not want to butcher a restorable car.
