Description:

Hi, up for sale is my 1998 #23 JGTC GT500 PENNZOIL R33 SKYLINE recreation.

This car started out as a 1996 Spec 2 Nissan Skyline R33 GTST, it took me around one year to transform it to what you see now. Inspired by Gran Turismo and the JGTC Era I decided to jump in at the deep end and recreate one of the most memorable cars that ever raced in the JGTC (for me). It wasn't easy, it took around 8 months to do the aero. The whole car is built using a only small toy diecast (Ebbro) model of the real car, I had no build plans, information or any parts from the real car. The aero you see on this car is built by me using only a toy model as a guide. The greatest compliment I've ever received about the car is many people think it is the original PENNZOIL R33 and how I managed to purchase it from Japan, they are astounded when I tell them it is simply a recreation. This is a very rare car knowing Nissan will never sell their JGTC R33, this may be the only replica in the world ever made? I built the car for fun, once completed I decided to take it to a car show (spur of the moment) and then finding out people truly are amazed when seeing it, I decided to take it to more. I've only ever taken the car to shows for the past 2 years (on a trailer), I did have plans to use it as a track car in the future but I have no track experience and it's an expensive car. Due to the fact it's now sitting in storage, I hardly get to use it; probably never finish it and may never track it, I've decided to sell it.

It is also a multiple award winning show car and has been featured in Japanese Performance Magazine Issue December '18.

There are small marks on the car but I'm just being fussy and honest (from trailering it).

The car is NOT ROAD LEGAL & it'll need trailering away.

It WON'T go on a recovery truck.

The car is located in the United Kingdom. European & International buyers welcome. 

You will have to arrange your own transportation. I will raise the car up for easier loading.

Thank you,

TJ
