John, I feel your pain! I've owned and raced three Europas. Always wanted a 47. I did get to drive one back in the '70's. I drove it from Boston to Ann Abor, Michigan and the owner paid me for doing so and paid for my flight home. Fun trip! It had a twin cam and a FT200 transaxle. Shifting with the left hand was fun and shifted better without the clutch. Forum member Ben Levy has a 47 with a V8 Rover eng. plus a GT40 MKI Chassis #1030. Don't know if it's on the road though.
