The drawings Dave Brown has were from an english chap that measured an original chassis.
You will see that some of his tubs have a fuel injection pump cut out in the engine bulk head.

Chris,
You have gazed upon the original Holy Grail mate, but where exactly in the US might the original Ford drawings be?

Re: "GT40" for sale.

I know Kerry Adams had a set when he had the workshop in High Wycombe here in the UK because I saw them on his big drawing board. And knowing Kerry I bet he still has them. I'll ask him again, but I know he won't part with them.

Ron ! That was my post.., didnt really know to touch the dark side of gt40 with that question..

Just I wonder why that part is soo secret.
I had a call to Lotus and they send me a LOT of technical drawings for spare parts (Elise-Exige), without any problem...
