Would a replica be worth 2 million? I know an original would be, but he said it was a replica. -Bob Woods

I am in the process of a full analysis of the Tornado suspension and an original GT40 suspension. Should have results in a few weeks and will write a report on it. In the mean time, I will make some comments. There are so many factors to consider in suspension design to make a car handle. When...

Mike and Andy, I would like to do the same door clips that are used on GTD. I haven't found their website. Do they have them for sale? Can you point me in the right direction? -Bob Woods

Andy, In the Tornado kit, they are the same length. -Bob Woods

Paul, I have a 363 SBF with the Borla 8 stack with the Performance Electronics EFI. I have the idle speed control and dual wide-band O2 sensors. My engine is built but I don't have the fuel injection or engine installed. So you guys are ahead of me but we are going down the same path. I have a...

Jeffrey, I would like to know the paint code for the blue car. Can you help get in touch with him? -Bob Woods

Adam, My engine builder has built several Dart blocks. My engine is a 363 although we considered a 347. I have the Borla fuel injection system with a Performance Electronics ECU. The engine is already built but I haven't installed the EFI or started the engine yet. Now, even though I haven't...

The tarp will flap in the wind and damage your paint. Voice of experience... Use the Saran-type wrap, but no tarp. Or would hauling it in an open trailer be any worse than driving the car down the road (except for rain)? I presume you intend to drive it. -Bob Woods

Bill and Ray, I ordered the Mobius with the video out cable. It may package well. I'll let you know. Pete, Google glasses might be a good option too. -Bob Woods

Ray, Well then, that will work. -Bob Woods

See my post #195. http://www.gt40s.com/forum/gt40-build-logs/42186-tornado-gt40-texas-10.html -Bob Woods

Ray and Bill, The Mobius looks great and will be a competition to the GoPro; however, it is a camcorder and not a camera with a video output. New Camera I don't know why we can't get a high definition rear view camera. I bought the Boyo VTL420HD that was supposed to have more lines and a...

I received my California Car Cover. It fits the front and rear very well, but the sides should be a little longer. It is expensive. -Bob Woods

Their exact words were "it was a very good replica by Superformance". At least they got "very good" right. Did you let them finish it or take it away? Was it a restoration or first build? I thought CAV's came as a finished rolling chassis. -Bob Woods

Richard, They didn't say, but I couldn't tell if it was a first-time build since the body panels were white, or if it was a rebuild. You can go to their website and ask a question. They answered quickly. -Bob Woods

See my post #192 in my build log for details about various cameras. -Bob Woods

Camera Research I now have three cameras and have made a preliminary evaluation that I wanted to pass on since there seems to be some interest in this and I suspect some of you are making decisions now. Perhaps this will give some insight into this subject, although I don't consider this the...

I saw a GT40 in the background on the TV show "Restoration Garage" on the Velocity Channel. Their shop is called The Guild located in Bradford Ontario Canada. I contacted them and they said it was a Superformance. -Bob Woods
