New primary metalwork incorporates more grounded front and back bulkheads, and the outside metal has been modified by previous McLaren fashioner Darryl Scriven. "We asked ourselves 'What might Healey have done while building a vehicle during the 50s assuming it had the apparatuses and producing methods that we are in the remarkable situation to have available to us today?'" Scriven said.
