Correction regards the flared cars they were not sold or built as such, three were built for track racing with such flares. There are road cars that were flared like that by owners. Its unbelieved none of the 3 race cars exist anymore. There are many copies though.

Sorry typing error, meant that as far as known neither of the three original race cars exist. Still a nice project.

In reply to wheelnut:
Just so you know we got confirmation today that it is indeed the Guest car and the vin plate as well as other features identified as the original build proves it.We had a friend from South Africa contact a guy who is a film producer there he has spent several weeks with our photos and documentation and informed us today that it is one of the original three cars.Hopefully the car will be going back to South Africa where it should be.Were working with him to see it happens.

These repeated Monza posts make me feel nostalgic enough to do something stupid like look for one on CL...
