    Not too bad for a re-creation. One thing is that if you are going to go that far why would you not get better more accurate wire wheels??

    The nose isn't quite there either

    The Birdcage replica on BaT not too long ago was really something. Even the engine was perfectly replicated. I cannot fathom the work required to make a proper 450S engine for a replica.

    Front end is non-correct! The usual %ixxXX)()(/)(//&&%?§%§§-replica with a Ghibli/QPIII/Mexico engine!

    The car was supposed to be displayed at the San Marino concours, which is held the weekend following Pebble Beach. But apparently it suffered brake problems, and couldn't make it.
