Would that be to drive or just have around to admire? How big are you Jim? Have you ever tried to crawl into one of these. For someone of my height, it would require that the chassis be stretched, or I should just wait until I shrink some more. Beautiful restoration though, who wouldn't be proud. Just the same, If I couldn't drive it, I'd put my lottery funds elsewhere, damn the appreciation it will garner over the years of idle worship.

I'm around 6'1", but I've managed to get into some unlikely spots. If it's comfortable when you get in, then getting in isn't a problem. I do know that a 906 fits nicely, and I can squeeze into an old F1 car. I do think if you have it, though, you need to drive it, so the value in my hands would probably plummet compared to a garage queen.

Unfortunately it appears this one has been sold since it has disappeared from the web site! However, it won the Targa!
