This car was originally shipped as a kit to Andy Anderson in the Kansas City area in 1962. He and Roger Hurst built it with a 948cc Sprite engine (destroked to 850cc), Fiat gearbox, and Fiat drum brakes. It was later owned by Bob McCollum and then Tom Newcomer. Ken Edwards drove it in 1967 while it was owned by McCollum. The next owner after Newcomer is unknown.

- note that this bodywork looks somewhat more like the early Beach Mk4 than other
Mk3s - the rear wheels are faired over but there is no separate firewall section
