If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

Yes it was around about the same time as the Ferrari 250LM, Shelby Cobra Coupe and the first version of GT40
The 904 grew into the 906, 908 910 the fearsome 917

To my mind one of the prettiest porches ever and would make a really nice and practical kit car if one could afford it - kits seem to cost 50thou
pounds or more.

That is about all Peugeot have the rights to at the moment, a big fat '0'

Sterling Moss drove one at Mosport in the 60's, I still have a picture of it, painted pale green, not quite as pale as UDT Laystall cars.
