we definetly need some official pictures of the slc, I think you mentioned body on and off of the finished car?!

The black slc looks killer, I'd love to see it without all that interior crapet hiding the beautiful aluminum.

Can we get a close up of the badge that was on the slc?

Its too late for that ...pictures of casey elsewhere already caused me a laundry issue...

The SLC has set a new standard for the kit-car industry.

I don't know if this link will work, but I attended with some guys from my local club. Not GT40s but........

have i missed something here?? when was the rear suspension arrangement revised on the slc ??

Fran Hall RCR · 05-21-08, 03:54 PM

yep....you are.
It was revised when I was able to have access to Ricardo transaxles .

I wanted a one size fits all production rear subframe and changing the packaging on the rear suspension was required.

I have recent (yesterday) pictures of the nose badge and the car but I can't upload them for some reason.

Have you moved anywhere with the rear bodywork enclosing the gearbox??

Fran Hall RCR · 05-21-08, 07:40 PM

Hey Dave,

As Fran said , "Nice avatar". I am glad you could use it! You are in for a real treat, if you have an SL-C on the way!

You will have the nicest car in walleye nation!

Cheers,

Dick,

Your car is a fantastic color combo. May I ask what paint that is?

Best,

I just can't get over how wicked and sinister that SLC looks. DAMN, that is one baddass looking car!!!

Hi Howard -

Yup, I search for good pictures of the car and that was one of my favorites - thank you for taking it and sharing it with everyone! I hope you don't mind me highjacking it for my Avatar.

I should mention that I just visited with Fran yesterday and he was as accomodating as can be - especially considering he didn't know what time I would be there (neither did I unfortunately). I was able to see and HEAR the shop SL-C .....it is AWESOME!!!! The finish on the fiberglass is first rate with mold lines that are almost invisible. The suspension and chassis is quite literally a work of art. I'm going with a TT Lexus V8 but the LS-7 looks and sounds amazing - coupled with the Ricardo it must be amazing to drive. Fran was kind enough to show me the stock of windshields, steering columns, wheels, brakes, suspension components, on and on - really beautiful stuff. I can't wait for my car to be completed.

I know that we are all involved in "kit cars" at some level. I have to say that the SL-C goes way beyond any "kit car" I have ever seen. Yes, I'm biased because I've purchased one but the sophistication, fit and finish of this car is really impressive.

Dave, TT Lexus V8, fantastic choice. The amount of torque those engines produce when turbo charged is staggering. That is going to be a seriously fast car.

Lukas Matzinger · 05-22-08, 08:53 PM

Wow... The black SLC looks about as bad ass as a car is gonna get.

Hadn't considered one as a future build before but I will definitely be following it more closely now. Can't wait to see what some of your customers are going to make out of them!

Ben Whittle · 05-27-08, 02:04 PM

Wait, what is this about the SLC model?

Nice pics! SLiCk!

Fran Hall RCR · 05-28-08, 07:31 AM

You mean the topless model???

Dan · 05-29-08, 11:19 AM

Those last 3 "official pics" you posted. Is the door gap really that large? I see there is no wondow so I'm assuming there is no latch and its just laying in place there. Is the plan to leave the transmission showing out the rear difusser or is there a black piece to finish it off? Looking mean in all black, keep up the good work!!!
