Hi Ross
I've managed to get some measurements from my part completed Classic Replicas 206GT. The engine is the Alfa V6 (Busso) 12v 2959cc. As it doesn't have an engine cover yet I can't detail some of the measurements but here are the ones I have
1) Ground up to centre of wheels :- 300mm
2) Wheel centre to wheel centre (wheelbase) :- 2230mm (which surprisingly is a bit short of the original 206GT's 2280mm)
3a) From ground to sump :- 140mm (a sumpguard might be a good idea!)
3b) From ground to top of engine :- 820mm
4) From ground to engine cover Not Available.

As it's still a project the only side view I have of it is this one from when I collected it on a trailer. As you can see it currently has 15" Alfa wheels which I will be replacing with a set of 15" cromodora replicas.
