I wonder what revheads price is... normally it's about half, so that'd be nice... making it road legal could make it a fun little car :)

You could always just buy a turbo 2zz built in the states for ~USD4000... it'd probably make the little thing somewhat undrivable... well, worse than they are now atleast.

Yeah saw that a couple of weeks ago when i was bored on the internets.
Interesting to see that someone has obviously put a bit of effort making it look good on the outside whilst it's rotting away on the inside, surprised it didn't fall in half it's that rusty.

They're certainly building a collection of those Ferrari's.

In Reinhard Klein's Rally Cars book, Fred Gallagher lists the "whistling pig" TA64 as his favourite rally car, the only downside being that Juha owns two and he has none.
Perhaps the one with the Arabic writing was Juha's "other" one.

Here's an interesting build going on. Not to the same scale as the others and not shown in as much detail. Looks like an old works car that's been used on the road for a while. This is the same model that we've started work on here in LH.
