I've never heared of this car before can anyone shed any light on it other than what is in the ad?

Micholetti designed both, if I recall correctly: pretty certain it's the real thing, NART played with a number over the years.

Looks very much like a TVR wedge, even down to the moulding line down the side.

The more I look the more I see it, and I've got a wedge but thought of the SS1 first scratchchin

Much as I'd like more power in my SS1 (1300cc Ford CVH) I doubt that V12 is the right way to go. biggrin

A V8?
Goes off to measure

A slightly better looking NART creation

I've seen a coupe of these now and they are up there as one of my favourite Ferraris!
