With so few cars made, I will take what ever come around... I would probably not change the tranny and I would never convert it from RHD to LHD or vice-versa. About 15 years ago when I started looking for one the LHD manual car from France was on sale in the south. They were asking so much that I discarted it as a potential car for me I have $100 000 in my mind, at the time but I may recall wrong. Anyways it was step! I also contacted a guy in South Africa but he had just sold his... for about 10 000 pounds at the time.
Two years ago one came up on e-bay in Florida and I just mist it. $35 000.- with a trunk load of parts...
Some guy in indonesia now is using the pictures of that Florida car as a lure to scam some one... It's offered at a rediculous price on the net and you need to call in. no e-mail contact...Buyer beware!
On occasion they pop up on classicdriver.com but everytime I spot one... it just sold. Yet the prices are never too high.
I have had a painting made of the New York Stock Ecchange a few years back and the painter asked me to provide him with pictures of cars that I would like him to incorporate in his art.
Well take a look:
