Whoever did that bog job did exactly the right thing. The body was rooted in every way. Time for the tip. Not economic to repair. So he gets a 44 gallon drum of bog and uses the original body as a male mould to make a polyester Ferrari.(Nice bit of fairing, by the way. Whoever did that could make a fortune in the racing yacht industry). What you're looking at is the result of someone with money and common sense in inverse proportion to each other, who is somehow blinded by a childhood dream. I haven't read the thread to see if there were clues to what the car really was. The photos look good, although photos can lie, can't they Trademe afficionados? Why didn't he just leave it alone? I now need to read the thread to see what the story was.
