    Barrett Jackson GT 40

    Ok Guys , correct me if I am off the mark,,, Weren't the MK V's built using the old molds, tooling blue prints etc that was bought from Ford (FAV). I thought I remember reading that somewhere. So if its pulled from the mold ,, its not a replica of the original. It is a original to itself, only...

    Barrett Jackson GT 40

    I know the owner of this car and have seen and sat in this car. I believe it is labeled as a 1967 on the title because it was that or import it as a race car at the time , from what I was told. It is a MK V and is in MINT condition.The body fit is fantastic as is the rest of the car. The tires...

    Ron that big one was in 96. I took a couple years off and then bought this Van Diemen .This is the best handling car I have ever owned or driven. Inboard 3 way Penskes & carbon diffuser. Sold it 3 weeks before I got my RF kit.

    GT40NA carbon fiber car

    Hi Howard, actually on ebay if your selling a car , you pay a "insertion fee " of $40 to list the vehicle. If someone bids then you pay another 40. If you have a reserve and it does not hit the reserve then you pay an extra 5 dollars. If it does then you just pay the $80 total. No percent like...

    What is the build and delivery time of your RF?

    Just my opinion,,, I would rather have a replica company take their time , let the glass parts cure up longer in the molds, cure longer before setting all the gaps, cure up longer before putting in a hot shipping container ,,, than being rushed to a antsy customer . I would rather have them take...

    I hate to say it, but like politics Hersh you will always have the far end of each spectrum thinking thier way is best, spaceframemono. It just simmers in the background on the forum and then pops up from time to time. The die hards on each end will never get thier mind changed , maybe just the...

    Oliver, I heard you already bought a RF completed car ? Do you still have one on order ? Come to think of it didnt you just get outbid on that original one on eBay.I think their is plenty of time left to bid again if you were serious. Are you trying to buy multiple cars all at the same time ...

    GT40 Replicas in Mainstream

    Ron, may I suggest when you get to the point of selecting a car when and if a mag wants to do a comparison, choose a "off the shelf " latest version of either CAV(Auto Futura),Roaring Forties , RCR or Superformance. That way they will have the latest standard brakes, susp. etc. Then I would...

    Roaring Forties # 61

    Great pics Bill, thanks. From your pics you elected to lightly remove the surface area of the seam just below the top level , and refill to avoid a line setting in ? It looks like you used standard body filler to skim coat the areas, correct ? Thanks again, Dan
