Yes, it would.  8) Could it be a replica built by David Piper?

I wouldn't know, I just saw that it was mentioned that he supposedly built a replica based on a P68 3L when he owned one. No idea how accurate that is ...

Was it commercially availabe kit?

Crikey, that was easy; and I thought this was tough one!
Shows what I know..

Actually the builder was Roland Fillafer and his son Alexander from a village called Winklern in Austria.
All you have to do now is answer the final question asked in my original post: what powers the car?
