+1 - but only after you've saved the Fulvia Phil!
Strangely enough I did take a look at these at Silverstone and if done right they are quite convincing!!
Yep I like them a lot. It's basically a copy of a 250 GT SWB isn't it?Quote:

To my eyes the 250 GT SWB is the best looking classic car. I was looking at an original parked up at Duxford a few weeks back. About £10m ish.
I mean, what's not to like about this. Modern(ish) engine and handling with a shape from a time when cars actually looked good

A good friend of mine Jo Ramirez has this very nice replica based on a Ferrari 330 chassis.

This SWB is much more accurate than the Z3 based SWBs, but might end up too expensive?:

'Has no lesser Ferrari donor, like the silver one that Chris C. has posted.
'Having said that, I think Ferrari donors are a thing of the past now?
Even the previously unwanted Ferraris are no longer cheap.
Mirage auto are "just down the road" from me - their demonstrator drove past me once when I was out for a walk.
Looks and sounds pretty good to me - but very expensive compared with other simpler options that look almost as good.
It was at Stoneleigh this year too.
You lot are making me think again !
DNA don't claim that there's is a true Replica, Brian goes to great lengths to make it look proportionally correct whilst no being a true mm to mm accurate. They do look good and you didn't get a powered hood on a 250!Quote:

Although....are those MGB rear lights?? Haha!
G'wan, Phil, you know you want to! G'wan, g'wan, g'wan! :) :)
I'm already thinking this could my next project after the LB :rolleyes:
I know where you can get a good donor car! :rolleyes:Quote:

I did see a 250gt California replica a few months ago when I was getting diesel on the way to work one morning. I had a chat to the owner and it turns out it was one of the three cars built for the Ferris Bueller movie. It looked really good, I was shaking when I first pulled up, I thought it was real.

Brian has had the rear light re moulded to lose the MG reflector, but they do look close.Quote:
