Good grief and for the same coin he could have probably bought a cooool Mondial [emoji849] Sent from my iPhone using FerrariChat
Indeed. The problem is that some replicas are seriously hard to pick and the owners always lie. There's a green GT40 roadster in the UK which is touted everywhere as a real car but anyone with marque knowledge can pick it as a recreation. Ditto the March 741 that's in Australia. One look at the suspension part numbers identifies it as a converted F2 car.
Kudos to you for picking it first. I was confused by the high mounted stoplight on the engine cover, but then I looked at the interior and realised what it was. The shame is that the car has consumed a great number of genuine parts (wheels, badges, lights, etc) that are now very hard to source. I also hate that Daytona GTS replicas are usually high in genuine part content.
This is why I increasingly can't be bothered with fchat. Too many pointless arguments that ultimately I couldn't care less about. It may have had a 5litre engine at some stage, but the tub and all the front suspension is a 742.
Just pointing out -the car that was here was a F5000 march tub (73A) which if I'm correct basic suspension was from the F2 March 732? Not an argument just pointing out what the car was.
This is the car I was referring to, which was claimed to be a works 741. I will accept a suitably grovelling apology. Image Unavailable, Please Login
That is known as "741-1B Rebuilt around a 74A tub. We agree on one thing it is NOT an F1 car but a build-up. Did you notice the gearbox-that is the giveaway! No apology, but happy to GHAB under a Viaduct!
