Miura & Diablo bodyshells

Don't know if this has been posted b4 or is known about but, this guy is selling Miura and Diablo body shells, I'm not sure they could be considered cheap but would be interesting (is anyone even doing these as full kits?) if you wanted to build your own chassis for it?

PS
The Miura looks stunning

Parallel designs are doing Lambo kits and those ebay pictures are the same as their website.

Not really a fan of supercar replicas to be honest.

Whats a locost if it isn't a supercar replica?

a locost is a super car, but not a supercar
not that I'm building one anyway...

Love the Muira - such a good shape especially the rear 3/4 view.

Nice link, had not seen them b4, looks like the same company right enough.
I had a look at the chassis pics on their site, now that is a serious amount of triangulation, it would be interesting to know if it had been tested and what the results were.

I still think the Miura is one of the best looking of the old supercars though (note the lack of space between the words )

Cheers

Hmmm...one of the Miura bodies with a rear mounted Jaguar V-12 on Weber IDA's, lightweight chassis....you could go blind thinking about it...

Speaking of Jag V12's...... here's a little something that turned up at one of the annual shows around here (Brisbane, Australia).
