Italia 227 Posted March 15, 2020 Report Share Posted March 15, 2020 (edited) That BaT post is actually from 2017. Italia #301 was sold privately and remains in the US. Edited March 15, 2020 by Italia 227 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It is indeed! Nothing to see here... move along. The TR4 frame seems like an odd mod for a high value classic. It's not like TR3 frames aren't available, either good used or even newly made.

Italia 227 Posted March 15, 2020 Report Share Posted March 15, 2020 (edited) The TR4 chassis swap apparently pre-dates the significant rise in Italia values. It was also done before the restoration by British Sports Cars (San Luis Obispo, CA), which is stunning. Car is said to handle very well, given the wider track, though appearance is affected by slightly protruding front wheels.. Edited March 15, 2020 by Italia 227 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
