Nice, but not 20k worth of niceness. Too many non-original bits to justify the price. Best colour though, blu notte ♥ (night blue)

The question is: is the car shown in pictures the 1071S (has very original looking boot board brackets spot welds) or is it the replica? Pretty unclear and rather confusing add.

Pretty straightforward
The car for sale is not the 63 1071 S
It is the replica that is for sale.
There will be a lot of interest when the 63 1071 does come up for sale 😂
Not mine by the way.
