Don't SPF's market themselves as 'continuation' GT40's with an authorised and licenced continuation chassis numbering system and charging premium prices for their cars?

I don't know for sure because I have never seen an original GT40, but I'd be very surprised if the original cars had nonthreaded clevises and the other failings that are apparent in the photos.

It's amazing the way some people get absolutely pedantic about reproducing 'original', and here we have a serious safety issue presumably brought about by departure from original, and and certainly departure from accepted practice with regard to something as fundamental and simple as balance bars.

I bet their door window catches and similar unimportant details are reproduced at great cost 'as per original' ! Go figure.....

So much for 'continuation'.......
