Nice build John. Is this strictly a street car or do you also track it? I can’t imagine I could get this registered for road use in New Jersey.......

Beautiful! I always thought the Lola T-70 was one of the most beautiful race cars!

Its mostly a street car even though that's a bit boring.  It comes alive on track days.  You have options on T-70 lookalikes from http://race-car-replicas.com/rcr-t70-spyder .  RCR also do the Mk111 coupe.  Surely must be streetable in NJ?

Great selection of replicars! I think the coupe is even prettier! My fav though would be the Chaparral 2F (probably without wing).
