Jim, Has removing the eyebrows caused any problems with wind noise or gaps opening at the top of the door panel at speed? If not, I agree, it would definitely look better. I'd love to see a picture if you've got one. Geoff

Ian, great links on Bob Olthoff, thanks! His GT40 career is also discussed pretty well in Allen & Jones' book "The Ford That Beat Ferrari." Superformance was pretty lucky/clever to use his knowledge to help develop the cars. Jim, agree re: this particular 1074-ish Gulf livery. Still...

Thanks! Yeah, the Mini looks like a truck next to the GT40. And driving the car just proves how right Colin Chapman was, with his "add lightness" motto. Jack, that December weather killed me! The car was delayed a bit, and I had nightmares of salt-crusted roads for weeks. What's your...

Hi everyone, I'm the proud new owner of P2236, purchased from Olthoff Racing this fall & delivered about a week ago. I couldn't be happier with the car or with the people at Olthoff. If anyone is considering buying a Superformance, my advice is: do it, and buy it from Dennis Olthoff...

Thanks for the tips. Olthoff moves up the list. I'll plan to speak to Dennis regarding a visit. It looks like he's sold a bunch of these. Rick, a family negotiation is taking place re: the Glen... if I can make it, I'll be sure to stop by. GT40s draw me like a moth to light, so I'll...

Hi, forum members, I'm a newcomer here (obviously), & after a few years of salivating, I'm getting ready to start my SPF GT40 quest. I'd be very interested in seeing an owner's car in the NJ/NY area. Might anyone be planning to show their car at an upcoming event, or a club meeting...
