 Would like to know how many of these originals are still extant. Had the rare priviledge of driving one at Westwood too many years ago and it had the rare combination of balance and power that made it a real treat to drive. The one I drove was originally from a Hawaiian owner which found it's way to Canada in the early 70's.

 After he moved back to New Zealand, John Olsen built a reproduction of one of these cars - he said it was completely authentic, except the rear bulkhead was deliberately placed 1/2 inch further back so it couldn't be confused with the originals! What a beautiful, and "pure" racing machine this was - especially in it's raw aluminum before it was painted.....
