I didn't want to come across as being critical, just had that thought. I thought that your finished vehicle would be a bit heavier. I TOTALLY agree with your comment about the car being race oriented. I have seen too many replicas loaded with gadgetry and unnecessary options, and being a purist myself I enjoy the original look and feel. I can do without leather seats, leather covered dash etc., and I realize to each his own but The GT40 is what it is. By the way, nice welds. I assume you are using a watercooled torch, and probably spent hours in impossible positions getting the quality you wanted there. I have to say you have a pretty steady hand. Looks great!
