I have the original bodywork from my Lotus Eleven down in the barn and have
been thinking about building another car with it. That way I can have two
cars that are the same car. The biggest problem is that neither one would
have the chassis number plate, since that was missing. Maybe a third!
This reminds me of the 1996 Chicago Historics where, "all 15 of the world's
nine (McLaren) M8Fs" were present.
