Re: Modern GT40 Replica

There are quite a lot of GT40 replicas built in Australia that are very modern in both appearance, features & operation. Our registration requirements certainly call for some modern features.

Exterior - modern colours, twin headlights, led rear lights, side indicators, high-level brake lights, modern wheels, lambo doors etc.

Interior - modern colours and style, electric mirrors, cruise, abs, traction control, MP3, ipod docks, modern gauges etc.

Engines - modern injected engines due to registration requirements.

The GT40 is just a beautiful classic shape and in my opinion looks great whether it's dressed in it's original livery or with a modern twist. The more variety the better in my books.

We also don't have Ford GT's here on the road, so buying a Ford GT is not really an option either. (Of course there is a couple of Ford GT's here, but you get my drift)
