Never heard of one? The car actually looks okay but the attention to detail and the overspray is not so great, even on the spare wheel.

That "overspray" could just be a reflection of the red paint.

Definitely not so under the bonnet, and almost certainly not so on the spare. It's down to lazy masking up, which then calls the rest of the preparation for the respray into question.

Humm, not a 1963 for sure, and frankly I was doubtful about the deTomaso connection. But maybe there really was such a car: http://www.zwischengas.com/de/FT/fahrze ... wagen.html

Me too but if they did exist, fine - this car, not so fine.

Needs a lot of work for me to pay anywhere close to that.
