Yellow '73 RS backdate at Historics/Brooklands

Does anybody know this backdated 3.2?

It was at the Brooklands auction the other week, where it failed to make its reserve.

Has anyone seen it in the flesh? Any comments?

Yes i looked round it at Brooklands. In the flesh it was pretty but the best bid was 19k. NOt sure id pay more than 20k but thats me

£30-35k seems to be the going rate for these sort of things. Not sure if this one looks right? i think the ride height has to be spot on to look right.

What was the finish like? I see they have two more for sale.

Interior looked a bit tatty and its a bespoke build so not going to suit everyone. No engine mods so the right price is whatever someone is prepared to pay as there's no real benchmark.
Paint looked nice and good color I guess
