Why is the body from carbon fibre?
Many people have asked us this question, thinking that the carbon body is too ‘new age’ to put into this project. We on the other hand have a different reason for the use of carbon. It is quite evident that if carbon was available in the late 50’s as it is today there would be no question about whether or not they would have used it. We are not trying to copy or improve those wonderful Barchetta styled cars – we simply wouldn’t be able to. But we do try to come as close to the authentic idea as possible. Form equals function and the ongoing pursuit of creating the lightest possible car.
