Re: GT90 from ground up

wow, the RM auction description states that the car is equipped with the quad turbo v12, I was under the impression that that engine had been removed in favor of a more reliable 5.7 liter LS1. hmmm, maybe they were just stating what the car had originally. Either way I hope may pictures are taken and cant wait to see how much it goes for...

Smile Re: GT90 from ground up



HEY! Now that the GT90 is out of the protection of Ford, you go to the new owner and get all the photos and measurements you need!
www.Ultimatecarpage.com states that the GT90 has been: "(m)aintained to the highest standards by Ford . . . ", so it might be okay. Your job has become MUCH easier!

Note to moderator: Yes, this post is about Ford's GT90 (as opposed to Des's GT90), but the purpose is to help Des with his build, not just to comment on That Other Car.

Re: GT90 from ground up

What happened in the auction with the original?. ..RM Auctions site shows results for lot 297, then lot 299??. . ..was it pulled prior to auction perhaps?. .owner had second thoughts at the last minute?

Re: GT90 from ground up

Hi All
Light at the end of the tunnel
personal "stuff" is over
Work resumes Yayy
Pics as soon as I can and have something to show

Access to measurements etc is a bit late now but thanks for the thought.
I hope the original does not end up mothballed in a warehouse somewhere
At least the recent owner took it out into the public

Re: GT90 from ground up

I'm so glad I stumbled onto this thread!!! Des, you are extremely talented and your progress is amazing. I can't wait to see more. The GT90 is an amazing design.

When you finish this, might I request a GR 1?
