Peter, I cannot see Guy's list with differences very good, but I am quite sure that 'all the bits and pieces' are not obtainable for 50k. I have spoken to some genuine 131 gp4 owners now and I really believe there is not much in common between a stradale and a gr4. Maybe somebody can answer this: a stradale was made from a bare 2door shell from the production line. A gr4 is not made from a stradale, but also from a bare 2d from the production line. Meaning they do not have to have anything in common apart from the basic shell. Is that correct.
And Guy, could you update us indeed on the price level for your cars?

Guy, CHAPEAU!!
Really fantastic that you are open in this. Especially for a car with its origins in Italy this is quite rare. Italians like a bit of smoke around their projects. Which is a compliment as well. That is why we like them and their products! A real joy. But I have to say that getting information about a competition porsche or rallye audi is very straightforward. Public records with chassis numbers everywhere.
Thanks!
Peter
