beautiful absolutley beautiful.
used to go for $2M to $4M but not sure of the value as it is a rebody not original?

still a sh1tload of money for a car though. i'd have it if i won the lotto

better go put a quid on for a ticket

Usually use 250GTE for rebodies - shortened chassis, hotted up engine etc.

nice looking car, but looks very dear to me. I saw a 250swb rebody at £150K a while back which looked good, and probably much nearer reflection of true value if a 250GTE is 60-80K.

Would love one, but have as much chance of affording a rebody as the real thing....

I really like the GTO. But I guess they are always going to be out of my price range!

Is as close as I'll get. But being based on a German I don't think it'll feel authentic!

I really like the 6 cylinder Datsun based GTO reps, but again it seems a bit of a shame to chop up a 240Z.

In the end I think I'd buy a fibreglass body and stick it over a fabricated spaceframe chassis. Then I would have choice of engine / gearbox and diff etc.
