Beach open wheelersand plans

[garagiste]

hi,

I am looking for information about Beach open wheelers built in Florida during the 60's. Gene Beach produced a beautiful and successful sports racer Mk4 and open wheelers for Formula Vee, Formula Super Vee, Formula B and Formula Ford.

There is a great web site at http://www.virhistory.com/beach/ but that is the only info I have been able to find. There is no owners register although I have managed to contact the owner of a Beach T11 Formula B Alfa.

The object of my obsession is the T11 Formula B and Formula Ford plans. Beach sold plans for the cars in the late 60's and the web site above has scans of advertisements and the cover of the plans. More than that I have been unable to find. There must have been many sold but I can't find any trace of one being built other than the factory cars listed on the web site.

Does anyone know of any more Beach info, especially the plans? Or any other plans/drawings for open wheelers of the past.

thanks! Charles Hoffman.
