Wheelbase - 95" as original car

The track would be a variable on the replicas but I'll measure mine if no one else pops up with the info.

Widest part of the body is the rear wheel arch, mines 1830mm edge to edge.

Re: GT40 measuments

Thanks Ross , looks like the dream remains a dream , I'm to wide at 1900 oa,to out side of tyres, and wheel base is 101 inches.
i could drop back to a 10inch rear tyre,that would solve the width problem, but i dont think i could shorten it to easily.
not to worry, she will still look a mean machine with the LMP body, or the Lola body for that matter.
thanks anyway
Cheers John
