Probably the one with blue carpet?

I really don't know - that little sneak peek above is the only indication I have that it is there.

This is 27R, correct?

I respectfully ask the forum members to list the chassis # (when known) when posting pics. This will allow us to search the forums for pics of particular cars, and for those of us who don't know them all by heart, we won't have to struggle to figure out which car we're viewing.

Thank you,

Greg A

Re: Location of GTR's - Index

You are right - and I didn't mention it because I thought nearly all here would know, plus there is a handy guide in the first post.

However, you raise a great point and I'll try to remember in the future.

Maybe a booth for tentenths.co.uk?





I am a bit torn on the year noted on the sign. Of course 10R was originally completed in 1995, but it seems more accurate to reference it as a 1996 GTR in my mind.

Re: Location of GTR's - Index

5 more shots of 10R here including a couple of nice ones of the interior - and I still can't tell what booth it is in. Gonna guess that no matter where it is hiding it will be hard to miss.



Same as per usual with the button-click mouse trick.

Re: Location of GTR's - Index

And tak43 sent me a photo of the sign with the car - which puts the whole story in perspective and resolves my issue with the year.



Thanks for the other photos as well!

If anyone else goes to see it, will you try and snap a closeup picture of the travel lugs?

Re: Location of GTR's - Index

Okay - how about instead of the 'travel lugs', point your camera at the wheel nuts with the loops on them for tie down straps.

Just want to see what the writing says.
