    Scratch Built in need of Transaxle ideas

    It's a simple one cable to engage P-N-R-D Once in drive you are just controlling a solenoid bank and the lock up torque converter. The LS in this build was just over stock so in the 325-350hp range. It started life as a 300hp truck engine. We didn't dyno or anything. The stock 300m was in...

    Scratch Built in need of Transaxle ideas

    I'll second the 42LE from an intrepid/300M. The late 300M is a better one. They had somewhat of a "reputation" but I found most people/shops topped off with the wrong fluid. I built a mid-engine chassis with a LS mated to the 42LE many years ago. I did not run in auto mode, just paddle...

    Hello friends in UK

    I am in the USA and I have found a non-GT40 replica in the UK. It's located in Po33 4pa. I just want someone local to confirm it's real and not a scam. I can compensate you for your time. PM if you can help in the next day or so. Thanks

    Chassis origins

    The rear arm pick up points are actually a little more inboard than the GTD I have. hhmmm

    Chassis origins

    I agree, I think you are correct the it is something similar to the explorer bearing/hub but after many days of digging and several trips to my main aftermarket parts supplier, I think my time may be better spent redesigning for a new hub assembly. I'm leaning toward redoing the upright for...

    Chassis origins

    Correct, I'm aware the chassis is not GTD. I have another chassis that has a GTD tag on it. I'm trying to ID this chassis.

    This is interesting, I'm wondering who made the body?

    I don't have an opinion other than the previous post about likely made by someone local that is well know for one-off movie cars. Anyway, I considered it briefly but I don't need another project unless it could be a fairly easy build. With a one piece body with no jams or door inners it's just...

    Chassis origins

    I seem to be collecting more parts than building.... I started this journey by collecting a body, then working on fabricating a chassis, then stopped because I acquired a GTD chassis without any arms. After a few years of networking with folks, I've collected more parts. So the latest...

    GT40 Chassis Value

    One chassis has a GTD or GTD copy body on it

    GT40 Chassis Value

    Agreed. These are well done by someone fabricating non-GT40 chassis for years. The chassis is not direct copy of anyones but appear to be GTD derived with some improvements to the rear that others like Southern GT has done in the past.

    GT40 Chassis Value

    Thanks for your input. For valuation that I may be able to liquidate, I'm assuming spare chassis with arms and uprights are probably worth 6-8k each in US. Thanks.

    GT40 Chassis Value

    This is not a solicitation. I'm just trying to determine value. In hunting GT40 parts, I stumbled across a gentlemen with some health issues that was going to enter the GT40 market maybe 10-12 years ago. He has decided to part with his stuff. He used to build custom bikes and fabricate...

    GTD Question

    I've been gathering parts for a couple of years. I recently acquired some GTD parts and the interior parts have a leather/vinyl texture in the gel coat. Does anyone know the reason or background to this?

    Cushman Competition?

    I bought the front and rear camshells that were on P1027 when that car was in his shop for restoration, these were on the car for vintage racing. The original panels were going back on the car. He also sold me the doors, rockers and roof spider. I had no issues with Jay, he did what he said...
