Greetings:

I found this GT 40 for sale, looks like most of the car is there, but have not seen the windshield and some of the other glass pieces. Had some interesting comments from the seller, such as they lost the key, has a new ignition, but not hooked up as they are afraid to blow the 10,000 computer (motec?) I thought riiggghhtttt....but who knows as it is an estate sale due to a death.

I could find no identifing marks except some parts came from Canada. What struck me was how light the car seems. Tanks in the side, no side impact protection, I thought that if I flipped it, it would totally collapse and burn. The windshield and fiberglass seemed that flimsy? That being said, lightness = Speed. I am use to moderate speed, as I have a picture of my daily driver attached. As light as the car seemed, it should be very fast if all is in order.

The asking price is 37K. Any advice is appreicated.
