    I have always been interested in this car but I haven't even been able to find a decent link with good info. Id like to know the history of it and the usual how many were made, how many are around now etc. If anyone has a good link I would appreciate it.

    buy the kit car the look the same with newer motor do and online search and there are very good kit cars out there insane to buy a real one and if you can even find one. I think around 40,000 g's and there are always up grades they alos sell on ebay for a little cheaper.
