Hi Everyone:

Today is build day number one for me on my GT40. I have decided to do a scratch build for my 40. I started a Locost 7 a while back but lost interest in it after hearing one at track day back in October last year.
I have always loved the sound of built V-8 and I knew a 4 cylinder was not going to satisfy my itch. I love have always loved Fords and a the GT40 is the one desire I thought was out of reach but after lurking here for a while and hours of reading old threads. I feel this is a project that I can do.
There are members of this forum that have already been of great help in getting started on the right track. Thanks to you all!

I'll be posting photos on this thread as often as I can.
Best Regards Dave
