    Original GT40 B pillar

    Hi, The rear clip does have a swage but as Brian states, not on the door or the B-pillar. I'll dig out some photos if you need them. Regards,

    Gt40 1013

    Hi, 1013 was reunited with its original reg. number OVX 355D when Bryan Wingfield last restored it in the late 1990's. I think that it is now in Belgium. Regards,

    GT40 Graveyard!!!

    It is 1070 without question. The fire occurred in about 1970. How much of that original chassis is present in the current 1070 I'm not sure. Regards,

    Porsche transaxle starter fitment...

    Hi Kim, When I first built my car I used a Porsche starter. I had some new lugs welded onto the starter mounting plate which allowed me to rotate the starter and have the solenoid out of the way. It wasn't a massive job. Regards,

    The guy is obviously a jobsworth. Wouldn't mind if it made things safer but it's legislation for legislation's sake. Regards.

    48 Ida linkage

    I think that you can do away with the bell-crank and the short connecting rod that goes to the first carb, fabricate a new cable bracket so that the cable pulls the lever of the first carb and then everything should work using the existing linkages. Regards,

    48 Ida linkage

    Hi Mark, A lot depends on which manifold you are using. Do your carbs all face the same way or do they face each other? Regards,

    P 1000 w

    As Stephen says it was built by Bryan Wingfield in the 1980s using mostly original parts although based on a Tennant Panels chassis. It featured recently in Motor Racing magazine, I think it was Motor Racing. Regards,

    Early spec rear lights

    Hi Tom, They are Lucas units and are still readily available. If you use these on the road in the UK, I think you would need to fit additional reflectors. Try Stafford Vehicle Components, Europa or Holden. I have some Fiat 850 ones if you need those. Regards,

    Problems finding a suitable door seal

    Hi Nick, I've been looking for decent door seals but there isn't much choice. It's a common misconception that COH Baines supplied the original door seals but they didn't, they were made by a now defunct German company. Lotus Elan owners suffer from the same lack of seals. Regards,
