With the RV8, the opportunity arose for a few replica Roadsters and one of the best known suppliers was John Hills (no longer operating, I believe, unless someone can advise otherwise). However, it wasn't just Roadsters that received the treatment, many felt the factory should also have done the GT, too. Here's an example that belongs to Richard Day, and which he subsequently converted to V8 to complete the effect. The only non-RV8 aspects of the replicas are usually the windscreen frame and quarter-lights. (Photo- RJ Day)
