So chuffed you’ve managed to sort it Stu, excited for you. Great effort.
Nice project. Someone has also converted a MC12 Corsa to a road legal car. 0-200km/hr in 6.4 secs...
The car's last competitive outing at Abu Dhabi

At Ebor GT before I bought it, both of their cars were returned to their intended white as a blank canvas for racing livery to easily be applied

Some interior shots, not quite the comfy continental tourer that you would usually associate a Granturismo with

Well done Stuart!
Brilliant read and will be looking forward to regular updates and pictures here.
That sort of motor would be a thing of dreams for a lot of us (me) so its good to see someone doing it.
Hopefully, as I'm not that far from you, when you get it home I'll get a good look some day.
The more I think of it, this has Front Page Auto Italia written all over it! Take it to Brooklands you’ll get the track to yourself!
Wow well done that's some car Stu and next question is when are you coming toa track day with us?
Actually thank you Stu for letting us have the opportunity to work on her.
Ash and I spent many a weekend working on her more out of pleasure than needing to its such an uber cool car.
As for driving her, I am still not sure if I actually enjoyed it, its been a while since anything has scared me sh!tless like that and its been 20 years since driving my group N pug in anger.
What you have realised is bring something together that most of us can only dream off, hats off to you fella.
So Maserati made a total of 15 MC 12 Corsa's. 12 were for the public, they kept 3 for testing. This being 1/12 having been converted to road legal use.I believe Maserati made 12 road legal Corsa's.
Edit. I see on the second video 1/12
In a way a shame you have had to modify it ie the map, the front diffuser to make it road legal. I think i'd have kept it purely for track days!
