Sid Creamer made a total of five cars. All featured space frame chassis and a variety of suspension arrangements.

The first had twin trailing arms which were sprung from flat laminated springs secured in the centre of the frame. It was too heavy and the geometry was poor. The second car was more conventional with double wishbones on all for wheels and coil springs.

The third car, of which three examples were made, had a forward seating position, coil and double wishbone front suspension and de Dion rear, sprung by rubber bands. The final version was successful and Sid won six races.Sid also built the chassis of the Smith III and one or more chassis for Don Parker.

If anyone has any more details or photos of these cars, please get in touch.
