WHY: Are most of these cars coming up with "left-hand" shift levers??? Is that status-quo on GT40s? Certainly NOT on FORD GT..

John, England, SA, Australia, NZ, Japan, and many other countries the normal mode is right hand drive, left hand shift.
In the US some replicas left hand drive, right hand shift, to mimic the normal mode of driving. Quite naturally some replicas in other countries will be constructed to mimic normal driving patterns and that is right hand drive left hand (center) shift.

Is it worrying that 'an ex race engineer with the Audi Sport South Africa' spells monocoque 'monoque' not once but twice in the Ebay ad?

SORRY FOLKS: In traditional USA fashion, I am continuing the "regular way" on LOLA "one off". See right-hand drive with "right-hand shift"...I would feel like throwing a ball "like a girl" if there was ANY OTHER SETUP.
