    I did a search here and couldn’t find any info on this book.

    Any opinions?

    Thank you, Marcel.

    Interestingly, this is both why I couldn’t find anything here, but also why I found it for a low price online. And bought it!

    So, it's only OK. It has lots of gorgeous fotos of s/n 3995. And many familiar period pictures of similar cars.

    But it's only OK in production development, and poor in driving impressions and non-black-and-white fotos.

    It's too expensive. As is Doug Nye's biography of s/n 2119. Which is really well done, but doesn't offer much help on other SWB GTs, and it's not good value for the money, in my opinion.
