Sounds great man! Just finished the exams so just waiting on my results to see if it'll be Mechanical Engineering in UCD or DIT. Nothing to do in the meantime though. I'll get onto you about that Andy. Thanks!

Just something that I noticed from your photo, Dave. You want to move the bar back an inch or too, but if you think about how it's mocked up and how it will be when finished it's different. I assume that when you weld the crossbeam in it will be flush with the other bars? In the mock up you...

Wait, can I get this straight? You're going to ACTUALLY buy and build this car for your daughter???? I have to say that that isn't something that you'd see here in Ireland! If you do this, you rock as a father!

:O I want!

I love using the lathe!!! Sometimes I spend hours after school working on it. Mostly if I've got something that needs filing then I'll stick it in the lathe and face it off. Never used a mill though because ours broke years ago but I've still had to study them and find out what they do.

Hey guys, this is actually one of the things that I was wondering about. Besides the obvious wrenches and such, would you not NEED some form of welding equipment, mounted drills, heavy duty saws, engine hoists and maybe even a lathe? It seems like a large amount of stuff! How many people get...

Chris, I'd love to build my own GT40! It's been my life long dream! Even though I'm pretty sure it'll never be completed. :D Only complication that isn't obvious is the Irish vehicle registration and taxation. You have to know the grams of CO2 per kilometer travelled for your engine. That's...

Hello! OK, so I literally just clicked on the e-mail confirmation and joined the site! A little about me, I'm 18. In final year of school. Favourite class is Engineering and hope to take it up in University. Always (and I mean ALWAYS) loved the GT40. I'm not new to internet...
