That is indeed a beautiful car; many thanks for pointing us to it. However, since I don't think it had a motorsport career (someone please correct me if I'm wrong!), I reckon this thread is ideal for our new Classic Car Forum, which is where I'm going to put it!

Let's hope thebear returns to repost the link; my 'Googling' has not found it.
Thanks, Dave, it certainly had plenty of echoes of the TZ2. |

Ditto, did work before but not now.
Nice car though, although I prefer the TZ2. |

Another Comment
Perhaps you might be interested in an overpriced '52 Disco Volante of `suspect parentage'?

Now that really is interesting; either it is a 'discovery' or an amazing replica. That would surely be an incredibly difficult body to replicate and very expensive to do I would guess.

Yes, somehow it 'feels' right to me too; can't put my finger on why, though! Be interesting to see what it goes for.

However, the seller has added a note that he accepts that it could well be a recreation, in which case you have to question the veracity of the Vin no. (nothing new there then!). Still, a nice thing to have if recreated from period components.

The Canguro is great, it was interesting to see the comparison with the TZ2 as I have seen one of those in the flesh, the Canguro must be very low indeed.
They both look like the 8C Competizione concept car - I wish they had put that into production |

Anybody notice the interloper - a Jowett Jupiter? (But with Farina bodywork!)
