Not sure you could have a clear and definitive answer... As these car were sold in kit form mostly, each builders could have fit a column from any different donor, as long as it could be fitted ... On mine, I think the column came from a Dolomite too (well, it looks like), but never had the...

Don't know if it's the best or easiest way, but did mine with a cardboard template. Dressed the inside with some brown packing tape, and fiberglassed it. Needed some sanding and slight modification, but eventually, I ended with something I found acceptable... (and cheap !)

The perfect heart for a P4 replica, wouldn't it be ?

Below you'll find two pics of original NOS eyebrows found on this forum :http://www.gt40s.com/forum/gt40-tech-exterior-interior-ac-trim/25082-eyebrows-needed.html L shaped steel, as you can see. I was fortunate enough to had a very close look to P/1078 (Mr Nahum's car) two months ago, and I...

With a quick googling, you can get another pic of P/1142... Seems to be very nice ! https://www.motorbase.com/picture/profile/2014/09/21/gt40-mkv-1142-racing/

Hi, I have GTD build manuals, and some electrical drawings, all in .pdf files, provided to me by a distinguished member of this forum. PM me if you want them.

By the way, Chapter 2 is on line for few months now... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oo2NZv6qpzU

One of my friend had the very same recurrent issue with his SPF, on front and rear bearings... He had some sleeves machined, installed them on the hubs. This needed a change in the size of the wheel bearings (larger). Problem solved. Not a so heavy job, if you have a good machinist (PM me if...

more pics here : Gallery | Gelscoe Motorsport scroll down to the very bottom of the webpage...

That should mean : Chassis number 216, manufactured in 1990...

Why don't you just take close pics of your car, without any background ? Sorry not to see the end of this build story...

Really ? Are you sure to link these acts of vandalism with the fact of showing your build here. Well, anyway that's very sad (for you, your Jag and for all of us)...and I understand your anger.

For the stratos replica : Hawk Cars - HF2000/HF3000 Series If I remember well, these stratos rear lights were Fiat 850 units ? They are easy to find here in Europe...Period original used, or brand new. Fiat 850 1100R 850 Coupe' Couple Feux Arrière | eBay Feux arriere FIAT 850 Equipement Auto...

Very interesting infos, thanks Malcom.

Malcom, Just to get the idea, what kind of gearbox do you have with your new rear end SGT ? did you stay with a UN1 (stock orientation) ? or did you jump on something else (inverted UN1 or G50 ?) Does that new rear end work with the stock Granada uprights, or do you have to swap to those...

Fred, No problem. A fellow member of this forum just sent me some nicer and clearer diagrams than the ones I had previously (many thanks to him), I take the liberty to send them to you at once. Good luck with the wiring..

This must be depending on each car... I must say that on mine, everything on the loom was matching with the diagrams : color code and location in the connector.. (except what had been messed up by the previous owner...)

Ron, You have a PM...

With the column on max upward position, no problem, it'll clear my (small :D) knees... And will help a bit to manage with the quick ratio steering rack installed on the car (nice on track, but not so downtown...:uneasy:)

BTW, logically, this gap "forward" should have an impact on the cockpit side, which be one inch forward on the left than on the right ? The left door striker must not have the same shape than the right one ! (i.e. one inch shorter ?) Is it noticeable ? While doing some welding, and since you...
