[Tony Chastain]

Hello. I'm a new guy from Indiana. I feel in love with the GT40 since I was a kid when I saw my first one in Indy.
I'm at the point and ability where I want to biuld one from scratch for myself.
Any help ,info , where and who to find prints on the chassis and rest of the car would be very appreciated.
I want to biuld a fe 427 version. I have had the injected engine for some 25 years.
I and 2 friends will biuld It.
Thank you

Welcome to GT40S Tony. All I can say is read all the build threads out there. To my knowledge there are no real prints available for purchase. Search the forum as there was a thread or two recently about just that. There are partials out there but do not know how accurate.
Enjoy the forum!!!
Regards Brian

Thread very nicely documented by René with drawings and alot of build pictures
If you use those 2D drawings to transform them in CAD you can easily have a good start to draw all the frame and suspensions before to built and do watever mod you need for your own built
