16V or 8v?

How much that set you back?

Good ones seem hard to come by these days without paying silly money .

Its already been built for track use & used as a track car. Its been seam welded & has FIA approved cage, harness & seats. Would be a waste to keep it as a show car after all that work has gone into it!!!

I'd run it as a road car.

Nice and safe with all that work done.

I've always loved these.
