Just to add my two bits to this discussion. I was watching "Le Mans" again for the nth time last night, there is a scene showing the bottom part of the Ferrari 512 as it's being taken out of their transporter. You will note the bottom of the oil pan, complete with cooling fins machined in...

Due to the tremendous response from people, I've attached the pic for your perusal. I'm currently doing a Ford F3l in the same style so hold onto your hats... Rick

I have to second that about Denis. We had a chat on the phone about his Jaguar XJ220 replica, his CD photos were very inspirational... Rick

Hey Joseph, which magazine did you get this out of? I agree it would look great framed, have to keep my eye out at the local swap meet... Rick

Rob, really interested in this as I'm making my molds now for the doors and would like to try this out. Any pics of the internal mechanism or leads would be greatly appreciated. Off to the wrecking yard tomorrow for RX-7 mirrors! Rick

Looks like fun. Much regrets not being able to attend but perhaps in the future, a good excuse to drive down in one's GT40... Rick :)

Jim, for those of us who couldn't make it down today, could you please post any pics of your open-house... I was planning on driving down last night from Ottawa but alas, I'm working this weekend. Hopefully once I get my '40 going, I'll meet up with you one of these days. There seems to be a...

Scratch-built Mk I w/ monocoque chassis (in progress)... Rick

[ QUOTE ] That seems to be what the majority of people have indicated to me, that the panels are derived from KVA. Therefore, unless I am wrong, to answer your other question, yes, it's from Ken Atwill's original reproduction off a Mark I. I have received a tremendous amount of interest on this...

Actually I shouldn't be all that mad, it just makes my GT40 project a little more exclusive... Monsieur Earl has a right to smile when he gets his GT, please post pics once received. Rick

Just got back from the local dealer in town, apparently, the dealers here in Canada have been told that the Federal Gov't wants to crash test two (2) cars and are insisting on bumpers (front and rear) and other totally unnecessary stuff to even qualify for certification. Geez, I guess they...

I don't mind considering that possibility in the future as it would be nice to have an available source located in North America, however, I'd like to see how the body panels come out first as I'm a firm believer in quality workmanship and I would not provide inferior parts if I can help it... I...

Thanks Bill, I'll take you up on that offer. First thing after the excitement dies down a bit is to categorize everything including making note of any spots to touch up prior to female mold fabrication. Have you heard of Chavant's Rayite MDM Model Duplicating Media before being used for female...

I really didn't have any plans per se in regards to producing body panels, my intention at this time is to just build the car from scratch with a monocoque tub. The first thing on the agenda is to start making female molds, followed by a trial body for fit and finish. I'll definitely keep...

Hi Simon, to answer your question, they are male body panels with flanges installed to produce female molds. A little cosmetic work here and there (in storage for a few years in a barn) but basically all the pieces required for a Mk I. Rick
