A picture of my buddy Dale, we cut out a construction paper mock up of the radiator shroud which I made out of polished stainless aluminum. Doing those inside cutouts is a real challenge, but I think it turned out really well. Dale used a plasma cutter to do the cut outs, but you don't want to...

These are a few pictures of what Dale and I have been doing to get some of the plumbing done. Making the angle from the gas cap to the tank was a bit challenging, but with a little help from a muffler shop and some good welding we were able to get it finished. Like most of you who have installed...

I just received my new GT40 from Fran. Words can't describe the workmanship in this car. The aluminum welding is absolutely superb, along with the fiberglass body. This car looks like it is doing 120mph just sitting in my driveway! The delivery time was even better than Fran quotes on his...

Hello to all. I pulled the trigger about three weeks ago on the turnkey GT40, #151. In reading Ron Earp's last post, it appears that we need to contact Robert Logan personally. If any of you have his phone #, could you please send it to me so that I can communicate with him about this car. I...
