    The Swisstronic was all over the place IIRC. Saw it on Sheehan, in Monaco (Sport Auto Magazine..)...

    So there are 2 replicas out there. I kinda like them.

    I haven't heard of this car before, but it looks right up my street, thanks for posting. Maybe a sister car to the Swisstronic which I decided to buy just as it was sold by Sheehan. Price now too high from the Belgians for me.
    500hp from a Daytona engine? Maybe it's a 5 litre...

    Yep! Should still be JDR 001. Nice repaint though compared to Swisstronic look. IIrc the last asking price by Sheehan was around 175.000 € with a comparable exchange rate to now. Seems the car is back in the Belgium / french connection´s ownership. Rumour has it, that it was actually sold to a german dealer specializing in replica´s who´s quite close to the other two persons involved. What´s the current asking price from France/ Belgium/Germany ? Fun car but nowhere close to for example No. 1034R which at one point was owned by an acquaintance.

    interesting, i looked at the sheehan (bryan) car and the car on anamera and they looked nearly identical. when sheehan was selling @ $249k it really was a good buy for a very accurate and sorted race car. benton bryan's cars are all very, impressive and the 512m recreation is no exception.

    but i agree with 246tasmin...too pricey at the current level.

    When Sheehan had it advertised, we considered it for a parts car. Worth more broken up.

    Drivetrain, suspension, etc. All desirable in their own right to certain buyers.
