One of my favourite cars, so I'm really looking forward to this and I also wanna do a GT40 too!

I had a look at an apartment recently that is built on the grounds of the old AC factory which is near me! Not as glamerous as it sounds as they ended their days making 3 wheelers for invalids - disgraceful!

Good luck with the build mate
Thank you sir... I envy you guys that live across the pond and can experience all of the history of the classic age of motorsports just by walking out your front door! I'd love to travel to the UK for that reason!

Our 2 cars side by side would be a treat, indeed. I have this build posted on Club Cobra also and I am in communication with a guy from Istanbul who is getting me a lot of reference and even CAD designed chassis and body files from his 1:1 build he has been working on from scratch for 12 years! I hope that this build continues to be a treat, it definitely has been so far, but it's still early on. Maybe we'll have to put our heads together when the time comes for the GT40 build... I have been quietly collecting reference on that one for years now...

Garey
