Er.....no!

You cut up a 2005 car to provide a chassis and "Ferrari-built" engine that may or may not fit a 40 years older body........I've heard of cut'n'shut, but this makes my antenna twitch a bit........

Not sure that this should even be in the Classic Car forum, Tim, let alone in a historic racing one! Let's hope that some one with the wherewithal buys the whole thing; chucks the engine over the hedge and if remotely possible uses the body to restore a 330 GT that needs a body.

Easy! Fit the modern chassis and drive train, apply for FIA papers, get (or don't get) FIA papers, clean up at goody next year......

Given the seller's location and apparent 'attitude' I would guess that BP may already have paid the the 'damage' to both cars several times over.

Apologies, John. Perhaps I should have dropped it in the Tea Break thread?
