According to Richard Allen,
in the late eighties somebody in England
wanted to have a Nembo (Giorgio Neri / Luciano Bonacini) spider replica
built, but not wanting a British built
one i.e. like the ex-Barraclough copy
4773GT, went to Italy and met with
Giorgio Neri (the Ne of Nembo) to
commission him to build a body on a
chassis that he would provide - 5805GT. |
|
| Neri built up a body
buck and formed a new aluminium body over
this to suit the 330 GT 2+2 chassis which
his workshop shortened and modified
accordingly.
The
instigator of the project then ran out of
funds, the project came to a halt and was
laid to one side in a storage area. |
|
| Subsequently Giorgio Neri
retired from work. When Richard Allen
heard of the project some years later he
travelled to Italy to see if it was
viable to resurrect. A deal was agreed
and the partially completed car was
shipped back to England for
completion. The completion of the car was
put in the hands of Hayward & Scott
of Basildon, Essex, with final mechanical
preparation for road worthiness done by
Neil Cornes of Cornes & Chiltern
Hunt. |
