Really hate the bumpers on the GT44 - completely ruins the shape especially the rear bumper - can you imagine what 1075 would look like with all those shopping car peices attached! - couldn't Ford make a better effort with regards to crash protection than that back bumper? - looks like it's from...
Does anyone know of other methods of subscription/ payment because PayPal only works for certain countries and I fall outside the list of those countries....any help would be appreciated.
Mobil 1 15W-50 - full synthetic - unlike some PR oils that used cracked base stocks and call it a synthetic - fully synthetic flows faster to coat engine parts durning the first minute of engine operation which is when the most engine wear takes place, and then fully synthetic oils break down...
Those people in the other car can't have been too impressed hey, but as long as everyones fine thats good. A pity to ever see a 40 damaged like that - u must be really upset. Hope u can manage to have it fixed. - what did the other car look like?

I'm running 305/50 X 15 on my 40, I think the profile etc is IMHO one of the best compromises between looks, handling and ride comfort. - Heres a pic of how mine look on the car with gulf flares - got the tyres from GT40 Developments South Africa (BF Goodridge Radial T/A)
As for driver input being the difference between the original on treaded tyres and the 'replica on new racing slicks the orginal was driven by an IT professional and the replica was driven by an experienced Porsche cup racer so I think that maybe the less body roll of the orignal through the...
I understand why most people will automatically think that the newer replicas will handle better than the orginal 40, but after seeing a 289 originall with era(ie treaded) tires putting in the same lap times on the same day as a new (wont mention manufacturer) replica with new slicks and a 347...
I have a different set up - the whole window pivots open a little at the back to allow a through flow of air or the window and be removed completely and stowed next to the seat for a fully open window. heres a pic - the toll hindges are a bit small I think to be of any cooling use.
GT40 Developments South Africa sells bundle of snakes exhaust systems - ceramic coated to cut down on heat dissipation - heres a pic of my 40 done by them. Will post contact details for them soon.
It still amazes me how low a gt40 is compared to other cars on the road - after driving one it makes even most sportscars seem like double decker buses with such high Centre of gravities. It would be interesting to see of any modern manufacterers introduce a sportscar with such a low roofline to...
