Look at Grab Cad, 170 or so drawings there to use. Its not only one drawing, but many that make up the front panels. Many of us on here spend countless of hours studying the drawings, trying to make sense of the construction and build our monocoques. Give it a go with the drawings thats...

Still, even with a conversion to 110deg sweep, its not enough to cover the windshield as 130deg or better will be needed to pass the registration process - atleast in the UK...

Its mostly impossible to get any parts thats up to quality spec. I’ve given up on sourcing parts for mono and replica, and stick with doing as much as possible myself. I only have a very few vendors it trust in this game of GT40 potluck. I’ve been bitten too many times with buying parts thats...

The nuts/spinners needs alittle play in them on the threads. Otherwise with the heatcycles they get very stuck on the threads… alu v steel.

I have my temperature valve in my remote filter adapter on the block, and welded on AN#10 bungs to the plate. So its not a problem controling oil temp.

Billet based will have to be bespoke milled and tapped /drilled. Or just weld #10 bungs on original bases and weld up the other holes. Plentiful of these bases on ebay. Clean ally well as its rubbish to tig weld.

#10 my guess

None of these bodies are eaqual length left/right side. They mount slightly askew on the chassis.

Then just bend some sheet to fit onto the base and blind rivet together

Piper wipers are very similar

Invoices for all parts, new or new old stock

Keep the rear roll over bar, forget about the dangerous bars around the front windshield. Discussed to length elsewere on the forum. No need for plans, make paper templates and your’re set.

I think it depends what you put it into. Mk1 would not be possible with height restrictions. Mk2 if going into a monocoque for sure yes, but for a replica it all depends on if you see it viable to put a $60k+ engine into a replica which will not have any increase in value with a $60k or $6k...

Or just paint it all as the first job in the build.

paint after IVA/ registered
