Dan,Derek and Ralt Fans
Just a bit of an update for you guys on the South African connection.The car that came here is RT2-152,which seems to be an earlier number than you envisaged Derek,and the chassis plate is completly different to the ones in your pictures.The "unfolded" tub,gearbox and corners still exist.
The car was copied for the locally built Lant,of which 5 were completed.The ex Ivano Moavero car is,as you say,in Ireland and the ex Billy Maloney car is for sale here at the moment.Its locally built gearbox is engraved Lant 003 in the same place that an FT200 would be stamped.The other 3 cars are retained by the Lahner family who built them.
The unfinished cars number about 8-12,but most are just bare tubs plus assorted local suspension and gearboxes.
Hope this helps,
Regards
IAN
