Ever since I came across this picture of a 1963 Emery GT, I felt the need to see one in the flesh. So far with no result. More pictures were found, like more information about it. Designed by Imp wizard and avid racer Paul Emery, only four cars are said to have been built of which the prototype used an alloy body. The others came in fibreglass bonded in the space frame. One or two used different body styling with a lower nose and very sloping rear end - least as cool - and were raced throughout the 1964-66 seasons. One can be seen a few times in this 1964 footage. Question is what ever happened to them. One appears to survive in the USA, while another was reported in Germany decades earlier. They surely must survive?

UPDATE:
Duncan Rabagliatti had at least one Emery GT and probably more. They were sold, with most of his collection, at auction some years ago.
