I like it. Looks like a Testarossa and a Vette had offspring.

Proud to offer my Corvette on BaT!

If anyone has any more information on this car or others that Frank Milne has build, please feel free to share!
(@Irvan?)

I hope this one ends up in a great new home.

All the best!

Built to Frank Milne's vision. Extensive design change and a very high degree of craftsmanship.
IMCO the side profile is much more pleasing to look at than dead on front and rear.



The transition from the front fender to the grill is extremely sharp making the front look squared off and blunt.
Again IMCO that no one has to agree with.

Someone did a nice job with the bodywork, but not something I like looking at.
