    GT 40 Tires and Wheels Superformance

    As Mike wrote, the Vintage halibrand's are made for the Cobra's so make sure they are machined for your application, which I am sure they can do. My wheels were ordered from Image UK and are more like, if not the same as the 'wine glass' halibrands. Chris

    I am truly speechless

    He did say he didn't deserve the award, wasn't in the same league as past recipients. The blame (if any) should be on those who saw him fit for the award in the first place. Chris

    Importing into Canada ... Again

    Call Transport Canada's kit car sheriff (Harry B) and ask. Email works but don't hold your breath waiting for a timely reply.

    Authenticity

    Technically speaking, there is nothing "authentic" about any replica, kit car, recreation, continuation, resumption etc. so spend accordingly. If anything, the mono's out there 'emulate' the real deal, some better than others. Chris

    Snap-On tools are for fools

    I have accumulated many Snap-On tools over the years and have not had any issues with quality but with so many other reputable tool companies out there, the days of 'Snap-On superiority' I think are now for the most part over-rated and over-priced, IMHO. Chris

    Essex Wire colour codes

    Thinking about Stripes

    I would centre the stripes through the NACA duct(s) etc, you might need to cheat a little here and there but overall if done right, the eye would have a hard time finding any deviations. Chris
