Hi all
This was as much a surprise to me as it may be to some of you.
After I finished Chassis 68 my lady, Simone, and I have enjoyed some great times driving this car.
On one trip to Wakefield Park Raceway for a bit of fun we were leaving to go south and I let my lady drive one of the road sections that I knew she would enjoy.
Unfortunately she enjoyed it too much and has been at me ever since to build her her own GT40.
I finally relented and at the same time my older son David also expressed a long term desire for a GT40.
I agreed to build one for Simone but told David that if he wanted one he would have to build it himself although with my guidance if required.
As a result the following photos show the outcome.
We are now underway and because we are building two GT40's I decided that a Chassis Rotisserie would make life easier for the under car work in the earlier stages so I have just finished building one and have 109 on it.
These 2 new 40's will be identical to my 40 with the possible exception of power steering for Simone's car as she finds the steering a little heavy at slow or parking speed.
Progress photos will come as the builds continue.
