The Daimler SP250 was quickly moved up to C production class by the SCCA 
after its introduction in the early sixties, a class above the big Healey, 
and in the same class as the AC Ace and early jag roadsters, as noted a 
shame to swap out the sweet and somewhat rare V-8 in the car.

It is sometimes said the most beautiful cars are reflections of nature, if a 
big Healey has something of a big cat ready to pounce in profile, the SP250 
has a little bit of bottom feeding catfish in the front view.

Still a neat and uniqe car, on my bucket list of things to own.
