Ferrari 365GT4 2+2 vs Vanwall

An interesting capture on FB. Someone mentioned they had bought a 365GT4 2+2 which was too far gone. And as such they used the engine on this racing car: a one off special alu bodied 2 seater Vanwall.

Originally the 365 was registered as follows: LGH257N - Chassis F101AL17931. Her heart was pretty knackered too! But has been totally rebuilt and now running beautifully. 

17931 was originally Azzurro blue, then changed to red by 1989, when it was in the US. Then back to the UK in 1990. 

For those who, just like me, are/were unaware of this brand and car:

Pretty cool car with a very powerfull 365 GT4 2+2 under the bonnet, must be quite an unique experience to drive.
