My guess would be some sort of Porsche race car, but I'm guessing that isn't quite right ;).

Your guessing is right, in that it has nothing to do with a Porsche.

Shoot!

If we received points for wrong guesses, I'd have quite a few by now ;).

It's an Alfa Romeo of sorts, but definately not a TZ I'm afraid!  I need to knwo the make and any other information you might have please.

SAGA-GTO built by Jehan Louys, it's an alfa based Ferrari 250 GTO replica

Hmmm, tricky as you're alomost there.  Can you tell me any more, like the name of the make and model assigned to this one.  It's locked for you for 48 hours.

One of my sources names it an Alfa Romeo TH1, but on the website of the builder it's just called a GTO replica.

His profession is clockmaking and as a hobby he has built a range of replicas: a least 2 Bugattis type 55, and at least 2 Alfa Alfettas.

I don't want to post links here, but I can PM you some if you like. How is your French?

Sorry for the very slow reply Guido66.  You've basically got all the right elements in your responses, so well done, you get the point.  My French is pretty good, and I would really appreciate seeing the link to the other cars that M. Louys has made.
