There are some people that would have you believe that a kit car destroys a perfectly good doner, in this case a 330 GT 2+2, and is slapped together with bondo like glue. They’d carry on about a lack of understanding why anybody would want one. Then call out details, maybe like taillights, that hold the only value of the entire kit since they weren’t fabbed and are actually OEM parts.
Good thing for me I’m not that guy as far as you know. I have not only curiosity about these kits but an appreciation for potential ownership. The experience of driving a rare, collector car even if in reproduction form will bring you closer to unobtainium. And that my friends is special when your dreams are 100X the kit purchase price and aren’t found on eBay.
I put this GTO into a Beck-type reproduction class like 904s and Spyders that continually hold their value. I would never be embarrassed to say I own it or afraid to drive the snot out of it.
On eBay in Germany for $389,000.
