Ginetta G4?

Aha - now we're getting somewhere!
Ginetta - yes
G4 - no

Will lock it for you for 24 hours to find which Ginetta it is.

Ginetta G12 Petit. A design study carried out by Richard Petit, Ford's Head of Advanced Vehicle Concepts Studio for his Masters degree. A very few were constructed, based on the chassis/running gear of G12.

Very interisting.
I only knew the scale model of this car and believed it was a stillborn project.

I have also found the mentioning of only one G12 Petit (or G12P) built, but AFAIK there is at least one replica.

The Petit car is not a representation of this scale model however.  There are just obvious similarities in appearance!
