I would be shocked and disappointed if Ing. Enzo F. missed a golden opportunity to add a few mods to the 250GT chassis when he slid the GTO under the FIA's door. He didn't get where he did by playing with a straight bat, Old Boy! You could write about it....there's a thought.

Its not just a matter of converting T70s to IIIB spec, but whole new shiny clones, doncha know?

And I thought there was only one March 707...? Or am I getting confused.

It would be lovely to have an FIA scrutineer pop up here, icognito of course, and spill a few facts about how they determine what is true or false, or nearly true, or just about true enough to race. And just how many cars would be left to race if they really cracked down and applied the letter of the Law. I would have thought that they have to turn a blond eye in many cases. One classic example is the Daytona Cobra that raced at the Goodwood Revival. I spoke to a number of people who really thought that was One of The Six. (they wish...)
But the problem was hightlighted when the Collier museum elected to race one of the Corvette Grand Sports at Gooders last year and the car was an innocent party in a multi-car pile up at the chicane when 2 GT40s wanted the same piece of road. I can hardly believe they were happy with the damage to the nose of such a valuable bit of kit. It would be fantastic to see that car back again, but I will not be holding my breath. Should they have built a replica? Would anyone have known?
