Thanks again. Yes I do have a small budget, but I'm not really interested in putting something together quickly just so I can get it on the road. I'm looking at it more of like a hobby. Doing a little here and a little there. The main thing I would need to purchase first would be the shell, chasis, and some interior components (dash and seats). Wheels, suspension, plumbing, wiring, paint, instruments, upholstry, lights, weather stripping, engine, and performance parts could be done at a later date. I'm not that interested in making the car an exact replica of, say, a Mk II or Mk IV, etc... because it won't be an original. It can't be. The new Ford GTs aren't "original". I've always loved the GT40 every since I saw it way back in '70 on "Le Mans" (also liked the Heuer watch McQueen wore) and knew I could never own one. Not even one of the new Ford GTs, but then I accidently found this website. To be honest guys, I'm kinda excited. I love my Lotus and fell in love with the Europa the first time I saw one, but there's something about American V-8 muscle. Vroom-Vroom.
