Please note my car is up for sale on Ebay and can be found through the following link:- FORD GT40 on eBay Ford, Classic Cars, Cars, Parts Vehicles (item 320140990205 end time 03-Aug-07 21:31:55 BST) Anyone looking for a vehicle that needs nothing other than future oil changes and service items...

Taking Simons advise I have re-listed with GT40 in the title. New listing is then:- FORD GT40 on eBay Ford, Classic Cars, Cars, Parts Vehicles (end time 03-Aug-07 21:31:55 BST)

Thanks Simon - a very valid point, as always :-) Cheers, KK

REALLY GOOD GTD FOR SALE ON E-BAY - IT'S MINE SO I WOULD SAY THOUGH :-) FORD (GTD) 40 on eBay Ford, Classic Cars, Cars, Parts Vehicles (end time 30-Jul-07 23:02:50 BST)

Rich, I'm with you all the way. When you own these cars you appreciate what they do not first - not whether they are 'pretty'. My comments are purely about 'selling'. At 45K you either have to attract an enthusiast who will be mechanically demanding and trust your car meets his expectations or...

Rich, if you are asking for 45K the car needs to be presented at it's very best. That the car I'm sure drives and performs brilliantly matters not if the cosmetics don't show well.The engine bay picture shows a rusting exhaust, spark leads 'dripping' below the exhaust, and an apparently...

Mike, this original link should work if you re-load and scroll down. I am in Kings Langley, Herts and will let the car go for £28,000. That's the £26.500 I bought it for a year ago, plus £4000 in bills to get it right, plus £1000 on my own acount (parts/labour) = £31,500 less discount ...

I thought it might be apt, to give anyone interested, the opportunity of doing 'something' before I re-list (again) my GTD on EBay. I had to stop the auction last time around, as the starter motor decided to fail. That is now rebuilt and perfect. Scroll down to Simon's comments and you will find...

Hiya. What's the best price anyone has got for a GTD? My car is well built and registered as a Ford on an age related plate. It per usual has a renault box (rod change not cable), marine 302, webbers, ap clutch, aircon, hallibrand replicas. All mots are kept with mileage now at 20,000. Recent...

Thanks to you all folks. Despite all the best advise nothing worked ;-) So off I went to my local airstrip and got them made up in minutes by one of the shops there. Should have done that in the first place. Cheers. KK

Can anyone tell me the secret of how to cut a braided hose in a way the braid does not then 'mushroom' off the inner hose and then stop the retaining nut passing over it ? They are aeroquip hoses. Cheers Keith

Russ, thanks. I sorted the earlier 'fuel fountain' by an in-line fuel regulator. Thus no more fires! On pain of death the guy who did the previous tune said don't start fiddling with the carbs if performance goes off as it it is unlikely to be the carbs. Your mail gives me the confidence then...

In short - car is pro tuned and all was good for the last 2000miles. Overnight, I then find when asking 'all' from the motor from around 3000rpm and up, the engine chokes completely. However, if I ask for the power evenly/slowly it gets there. Likewise, when the car is at rest it revs with a few...

Dave, you are so helpful, again! - thank you. Keith.

Hi chaps, can you help? My lower perspex (or whatever it's made of) cover has been shattered. In case of doubt this is the one that covers the side light and indicator on the right hand side if you were stood in front of the car . Where can I find a replacement or get one fabricated? Looking...
