Welcome again, nice to see another GTD being built here ! Provide us with pics of your car !

It's the gearbox used in the SM Citroen and Maserati merak, fitted to Maserati V6 engines (170-190hp), and also in Lotus Esprit 4cyl, I was told. The V8 + gearbox combo surely worth the 1.500 €, if in running order... You could resale easily the gearbox that price to SM enthusiasts, if you...

Re: German GT40 interpretation Sure you can be ! You did real amazing job, turns out splendid ! Can't wait to see the body completed and painted !

Nice ! Thanks for sharing...

Bravo René, Fantastic job, and great achievement, must be a huge satisfaction to have the car on the track, after having started from a flat pack of square tubes...! Hope we'll be able to have our cars on same track in the same session some day, to officially form the "gulf liveried GT40...

Wow ! wonderful work... If your skill in ali work is about the same than for wooden buck, your car will be world class winner ! :stunned: hope to see you back here soon with some ali sheet in hands ! :thumbsup:

Very nice colour combo, never seen before ! This will be a stunning car, with few features different from the orthodox kind, very interesting ! Very nice result, worth the effort and pain !

Salut Freddy, Je peux te trouver un pare-brise à vendre dans le Sud-Ouest de la France, pas si loin de chez toi... Un ami qui en a un de trop, dont il ne fera rien. Un modèle pour GTD/KVA, qui devrait monter directement sur ta carrosserie KVA sans modif. Si tu es intéressé, fais le moi savoir (MP)

Bienvenue, cher compatriote ! :thumbsup: There's always a start. Reading some build logs here is really a joy, you're right. Enjoy, as I do ! And it's fantastic to talk with people from all over the planet, from NZ to Sweden...

Seems to be a nice machine, I personnaly like cars with signs of use, this one has the kind of patina I like... Just some care here and there, and it will be 100% lovable...:heart: Not flashy bling-bling car, but seems to be a good street machine. The engine seems to be a 302 block crate...

Re: missing roadster Nice pictures... Hope we'll be able to follow the rebuild

This is a larger question about individual responsability. In our old european welfare states, surgery for brain damages is quite entirely paid by public social security, so at the end of the day, it costs to all of us, happy tax payers. I can understand law for mandatory helmets, as I don't...

What a teaser, can't wait for the chapter 2 !

For sure they look similar ! Not the space frame chassis pictured by Jacmac... Maybe, they used to build GT40 on a CAV basis ? Here is my source, pictures are posted by "Donald" in 2008, as far as I know a manager from D&D... la nouvelle Gt40 de D&D Cobra - Répliques - Anciennes - FORUM...

Congratulations, these cars seems to be quite rare... but very nice indeed. SS mono chassis ? Their cobra chassis are quite nice too. We'd like to see some pics of your new pride and joy, and get some details on your build to come.:thumbsup: Here few pics, posted by DD (right, they are...

Really nice ! Does anybody get an idea where these could come from ?

No black borders, yes, but sometimes some huge black duct tape ! :devilish: Very nice job on these covers, as always !:thumbsup:

But as for the GT40 replicas, you can find one to tinker on it :devilish: Other Makes MP4 12C | eBay

Very nice little cars indeed, always loved them... These cars were raced during the seventies, with some local success. But as J.Durand has not found any real financial support, things didn't go far. Many cars were raced in amateurs hillclimbing or rally, till recently. One of the most...

Jidé was founded by Jacques Durand (whose initials JD where used for the name of the company, in french say "Jidé") in 1969. One of his source of inspiration is ... the GT40 ! The car where produced until 1973 and were sold in kit form or completed : fiberglass body on tubular steel frame, with...
