Hi all. I am after some help/advice on getting a SL GTR kit from the factory. I am coming close to completing the GT40 and I would like the GTR to be the next project. I have made contact with SL but had no response. As I live in Guernsey I would like a RHD kit. My plan would be a JUDD V8...

Thank you. Not really sure what’s happened there. Was suppose to be a video.

Hi Chris Thank you, yes it is, turning out exactly how I wanted. Cannot wait to get out in it.

Hi all. Sorry the updates have been pretty slack. I set up a new company in December which has really eaten into my free time so I have been relying on a good friend to get stuck in when he has the time on completing things like the loom, plumbing, bodywork alignment etc. Unfortunately the body...

Slowly. The loom is coming along. Hopefully it’ll fire up next week.

Thanks Andy, still not sure on this. A few ideas in mind but it’s hard to know what will look right, be period correct and also offer the safety and support I want.

Thanks Eric. It’s getting there. Really pushing hard on it now as I really want it ready for the car show in June 20th. Just sold the Merc, it’s just gone to London.

Thanks Chris. Yes that’s correct, the headers are the originals that came with the car. The exit pipes I had made.

**Wait until we lay it down on the body.

Bit more progress. The business end is looking more like I first visioned. Gear selector is selecting gears as it should, clutch is all bled up and feels pretty good. Fuel lines are 90% done. We had to machine a filler and overflow on the cam covers. Loom and throttle cable is next on the list...

Hi all. Sorry I haven’t updated for quite some time. Work has taken priority and so the GT40 took the back seat for a while. However, intake has had a good clean, most of the plumbing has been done including fuel lines, brake lines, clutch etc, coils have been located in the battery trays so...

Sorry for the delay again guys, lots going on this end. Dash wise I plan to do something like this image. I have a bunch of aircraft switches and fuse blocks. I like that purposeful look. So it’s there to do a job rather than look pretty. So I will probably scrap the entire dash and create...

Sorry for the lack of updates, things have been a bit slow this end on the GT40 front. I had another project I needed to get finished for a show so my focus was on that. This week the aluminium will be painted black and then the bodywork will be aligned and fitted in place. It’s then just a...

Yes! Sorry for the lack of posts lately, a few family issues going on at the moment and struggling to find the time or want to crack on. I finished off the front section of panelling and have now decided to make the bonnet vent out of aluminium also. Aligning body and shut gaps is definitely...

Yes it clears fine. managed to hang the doors this evening.
