This car has noting from a Classic Car, and not response ad any present regalement. The only conform class is the past Formula Libre.
The best you ask the constructor.

I think the link is very clear, it is built by somebody who hates aerodynamic devices, added to the 3-Liter F1 cars since 1968. The engine is a Chevy small block. Why he using the Honda colours is unclear to me.

If you click through the site and read a bit, you'll notice that this car has no model, it is a product of one man's aspirations to build a car replicated out of his favorite era of F1. It is powered by a 5.3 liter Chevy, probably similar to the one used in the Silverado.
It's basically a "F1 kit car". I like it. A cheap option for someone who would never be able to buy an original F1 car from the 60's. And from the pictures it looks like a pretty well made kit to!
Stuart Tailor Ltd also has a 7-kit which is raced a lot in Europe.
Don't know if it is made road legal cars out of the factory though.
thats really fantastic. i want one.
Honor. Courage. Commitment. Etcetera.
I´d love to own a Honda 3.2 V6 (as featured in the NSX) powered version of this.

Interesting, but expensive compared to ERAs Lotus 49 replica
ERA single seater Built ready to race/sprint track day with factory set up £16,995
I know I'd rather have the lightness and nimbleness of the Lotus than the characteristics of a Formula Atlantic
With the pound the way it is, this woudl be a steal for any of you guys

I think the car would look much better if it had higher profile tires, though I suppose these days there aren't many wide sporty high-profile tires.
Matra, I'd definately rather have that ERA than a 7 derivative for a track blaster.
