We’ve all seen the SAS Rogue Heroes series (or parts thereof like me). I spotted the Chevrolet 1311X3 replica which I think looks the part. While most of the 1311X3’s were based on 1939 or 1940 model chassis-cowls, at least one was a 1942 model - and it was used by the LRDG (see the photos above).
Does anyone know who built this replica?
