Some time ago a Lotus 49 chassis was advertised on Ebay.  It looked to be a mostly complete monocoque, however it was not assembled in the pictures. The seller described it as possibly left over spare bodywork pieces to be used for repair or could be built up as a chassis itself.

 

Anyone know what happened to it, did it sell, or where it might be now ?
