I went and saw that in Vancouver in January 2011. I'm afraid it is not quite so good in the flesh - it's all rather tired







Unfortunately, it would have taken an awful lot of money to convert it to FIA spec as the American regs are so different. Combined with a chassis that was tired and the shipping and taxes it just wasn't worthwhile given what Evan the vendor was asking for it. If anyone else is interested PM me as I would be happy to advise.

It wasnt a wasted trip as Pat Leask was kind enough to look after me for a day on Vancouver Island with his lovely roadgoing MkIII.
