I'm in love with this car, if only I could afford one, it would be my last one. Totally awesome. This is my all time favorite body style, graceful yet racy with plenty Testosterone.

I owned a Unique FIA replica but sold it to a Dr from NJ. Loved the body style. Regret selling it. This Riverside Racer would make it all okay though.

Kudos! Great design and the car will certainly be a success. I have been saying for some time there is room for an accurate 289.....

Very cool FIA and I agree we really need someone to build one that has the original suspension etc. Checked out their website don't really see any pricing so I assume they are just displaying their first 2 cars and will start building in the future. Almost bought FIA a month or so ago so would be cool if they had a couple rollers near completion.

A little YouTube clip of the initial startup and first "test drive" at Port Elizibeth...
