Restoration Case Study:
Early BN4 upgraded for hill climbing in Monte Carlo

background
This story starts with a Swedish guy residing in Monaco reading his Swedish club magazine looking for a specialist to upgrade his BN4. One minute we are talking about the reputation of our CapeSport cars and the next thing the car has arrived at Corley with instructions to produce a CapeSport 3000 with a difference.

On arrival, we discovered that the BN4 runs but is not in the best of health and some reasonably serious mechanical problems are suspected - not a problem as the engine will benefit from a full fast-road upgrade as part of the overall project.

The objective for this ground-up restoration was to provide our customer with a superb car that will wow any onlooker in Casino Square, whilst also being capable of securing respectable times in the hill climb events he has planned.

in action
The car is now impressing onlookers on the Cote d' Azur - even the doorman at the Casino Royale!
