    I don't know about those sorts of things. I know Klink just had a head job (actually, two, when you think about it)

    This repro 59 TR that Simon posted has no information on the GCM website....Looking at the pics the car seems to be fibreglass ........I would have thought that for 500K plus it would have been one of the NZ made cars in full alloy off an original 250 GTE chassis.....It still looks nice though but I think they are dreaming price wise.....

    LHD POS. Still could be alloy - hard to tell from the pics. And why go to all that trouble and then put in those stupid effing seats?

    LOL "And it's definitely not a fake"

    Only an Australian journalist, steeped in ignorance, could make a statement like that, or suggest that the running gear of a 330 was the same as a TR.

    This car has been for sale from the minute it arrived here, has done the rounds of all the usual dealers. There's a reason for that.

    The Gosford boys were a gift for lots of people with sale-proof cars but they're "holding the parcel" now.

    Article states the Pininfarina did the "conversion". Seriously?

    Certainly - they wouldn’t write it unless it was true

    when Rudy M first landed the car here, he tried to pass it off as a recreation with provenance, hence the BS story.
