Hi Guys:

I toured Lee's shop a back some months ago. I counted 16 tubs in various stages. He accuired all the stuff in the U.K. All the stamping dies and build fixtures. According to what he told me. He was very nice and showed me and my daughter and here boyfriend around his place. I would buy one from him if I had that kind of money around but replica is my budget.
To me if it is original dies and original casting patterns it is still and original
Historically this is type of stuff never happens most manufacturers destroy the dies. I have seen them in the scrap yards in Michigan. How he found it was someone claimed to have 1047 he said it was in Japan and knew that the car was not 1047 because he has his dad's records. Dave
