Yes (Lindner Nocker). And at the same time the magic panel beaters built a facsimile which is now for sale (or at least it was last time I looked).

The car was crashed during a GT race at Montlhery in France and the driver, Peter Lindner, was killed.

They're supposedly building 5 replicas of the Lindner/Nöcker car ...

Wasn't the Original car scavenged for parts which were then built up into a replica, those original parts have now be reuinted with the original shell*, and the replica has been rebuilt using other parts to give them the car thats now for sale?

* And the shell was painstakingly unpicked, and rebuilt using as much original metal as possible.

Its quite a story. Not sure I'd want to race a car a guy died in though.

Yes, that's the E type I was refering to, great write-up in Octane recently.

I thought i had asked no more hot rods, makes me remember my UK roots with my Y type.

I want to see the A coupe!
Sold my 80% done A Sedan Tudor (31), chopped 3", V8 Jag rear, SuperBell front etc etc for my 911....
