They will retain a pressed steel frame, leaf spring suspension and 400mm mechanical drum brakes, along with the original car’s supercharged four-cylinder 16-valve 4398cc engine, which makes 240bhp.'
Ok, that is kinda cool. And nice to see not trying to update or improve the cars much, surprised they didn't try to update and hide disk brakes in there somehow.
