Hi, can some one tell me some more about this team SpeedWell Mini ?

This great model is made by SPARK and a SUPER model to have in my collection.

Thanks

Team Speedwell weren't really one integrated team.

Speedwell would sponsor or at least help many of their customers all over the country either with parts at cost, experimental parts that they wanted testing or is you were very good & had some good results & could guarantee good local press coverage they may give you an engine or the like.

All these cars ran under the team Speedwell banner, usually displaying a yellow & black "Team Speedwell" sticker or two on the car.

Ken Lee's Green Cooper ran "Team Speedwell Yorkshire" for many years.

Spark are selling this as a Graham Hill car

Any pics of this sticker ?

I have seen a few variations & have some copies, but have no idea where they are.

I suspect that a lot were done as 1 offs, or at least in very small batches.
