    It would sure help to know the license number. Do you know which country it is in? I have a couple of GTEs the horns on the carbs, but none in silver. Silver valve covers are unusual as well.

    A really sad attempt to convert a production car to represent the first prototype destroyed in an accident years and years ago. Best wishes, Kare

    Anybody else out there with a GTE that wants to step up? This has been a terrific thread that has brought me up to date with a bunch of GTEs that had been off the radar for some time. Feel free to PM me or post here so we can know how many GTEs are still alive.

    2915GT with me. Went through a lot of mechanical differed maintenance and will attend some cosmetics soon. Ultimately may do a full PB restoration as I love those cars and they deserve it,,,but spot currently used by the GTB, so will keep it on the road even if not perfect.

    That is a beautiful car. Great color for a GTE.

    There is a collector here in Brazil that owns replicas of a GTO and a pontoon TR. Initials S.H. Does anyone know if these cars were converted from GTE's?

    Here are a few links to pictures:

    The GTO used to be 330 GT 2+2 s/n 5837.

    I agree with Kerry, it is still a GTE. I do not have any Testa Rossa replicas listed in the GTE Register that are in Brazil. Hopefully this is not another lost GTE that we didn't know about.

    I am very interested in the Gray Japanese car, though. Don't have that one either. Can you PM me the license number? That may help.

    I shared the picture as I found it. I can send you a link and you can try contacting the photographer - he does speak English.

    I have the engine from 4831 GT in the lusso as early as 1978 and no further information on the Body/Chassis, so that one is probably gone.

    3357 GT was a complete car when I last heard of it, but that was 1979. Hopefully it is in someone's garage, just waiting for the right moment to show itself to the world.
