Mike D, thanks for sending that Kit Car magazine with the Proteus XJ13. Really nice car, definitely thinking about one of these things. However, Proteus is really, really, really expensive and I just don't see it.

Chassis is not that different from a GT40, using lots of Jaguar donor bits that can be had from a number of online jag sources (I checked) the car should be so expensive, even if it is aluminum.

Thanks much for the article, if the magazine is defunct I could post those for everyone.
