The 1969 Mk3B T70 Coupe used a full aluminium monocoque similar to that of the 1968 T160 Can-Am racer. The fiberglass body also received plenty of attention and created even more downforce than its predecessor. The biggest visual difference was the lower nose with two headlights on either side, installed under a Perspex cover. The suspension was very conventional by double wishbones and coil springs over dampers. Somewhat more unusual was the location of the front brakes, just outside of the wheels. This was done to provide sufficient amounts of cool air to the discs. The engine was a mechanical fuel injected Chevrolet V8 producing approximately 450 bhp and the Hewland LG600 was now equipped with five instead of four forward gears.
