Is it a Lola T70 replica by CanAm Exotics ?
I must be right - that's what it says on Wikipedia

This may sound stupid, but I take it the car IS an attempt at a Lola T70 replica ?

Just a thought - is it a Lola T70 II Continuation from Lola Heritage ?

Actually I checked and it seems it isn't a Lola T70 replica.
It's loosely based on cars like that and others of the period but the blurb doesn't claim that it's a T70 replica or a replica of anything else..

SCT-49 by SCT Sports Cars. They appear to do development work for kit-car makers including CanAm Exotics (!).
