These forums really do work!
Following a recommendation posted in a P4 thread, I found this:
Bailey Edwards Cars has added the famous Le Mans winning Porsche 917 to its range of models. They are produced as close as possible to the original priceless racing cars of the mid 1960's and early 1970's.
The Porsche 917 was renowned for winning 2 years in a row - 1970 and 1971 - at Le Mans. One of the outstanding features of the car was the top speed of 395 km/h (246mph) it attained on the Mulsanne Straight. This in comparison to the previous year's winner, the GT40, at 340 km/h (which in itself was very fast!).
The BE PORSCHE 917 LM is available in turnkey minus and drive away form.
The specifications to which the cars are being built are based on the original drawings, with improvements to enhance the safety and performance of the car, using modern materials and equipment. The cars are produced to race specification and hence are not suitable for being driven on the road.
I suppose it's only a matter of time before they have their own forum eh Ron!
