Hi guys, I'm french, and I often come to this forum, because of the GT, but also because I find the paddock area really instructive, about your (US and UK citizens) thoughts about almost everything. I've learned english at school but almost nothing about your both cultures... All I know is...

Great for you! You must feel like a kid before Christmas! Actually I would. She will look everyday more and more like the running car you were imagining... Lucky guy, window's already opened, and hearing for you... Olivier.

Nice vid! Thanks. Would you have a picture of the front section of the car, where the stearing column pass? A picture of the pael, without the stearing rack? Thanks Olivier.

Hi Leopold! Thanks again to take the time to answer my dummy's questions... If I understand well, your press is designed to optimize deformation of itselfs in several cases of bending? Wow! IF I had to design a press, I wouldn't have considered this problem at all! I would have just used a...

Insane! Leopold, what are those holes made for? Just a quick question, in your chassis design, did you used complex shaped pararts (stamping parts) or did you used "only" flat sheet folded? I've been desperately searching how to design "complex" shaped parts with CATIA, but didn't even...

Really? I've tried for the 917, and contacted the Porsche's historical archives dpt, and I was returned a negative answer. Did something changed since??? Olivier

Bienvenu à bord! Vous verrez, ce forum est une mine d'or pour toutes les infos qu'on peut y trouver... Elle a une carte grise en règle cette Cobra??? Wellcome on board friend! You'll see this forum is a gold mine for all the informations we call find here. is the Cobra registered with...

Hi Leopold, Impressive! (sorry, I run short of vocabulary...) How many hours for meshing/riveting? Cheers Olivier.

Jimbo, May you need some help for the translation , I'd be more than happy to do so! Olivier.

Hi Curtis, It seems to be the "Parts list" Check here: GT40 Mk.1 Parts List - Front cover The 14 others pages could be of help maybe. Olivier.

I think that nobody here is waiting for an altruistic guy to give the drawings for free... If one is willing to sell them/sell the right to scan them (by the way, we have a big scanner here @ my job =) ), let's go! As said Jon, if the dwgs are offered publicly, will it lesser the value of...

It seems that there is some kind of "mystical secret" arround the drawings... Maybe an old malediction stating "The drawings you won't show! The drawings you won't sell! If you do so, Earth will open under your feet, sky will fall on your heads and the entire mankind will be reduced in slavery...

Concerning the "rights" about the drawings, Does anybody know who owned them? As far as I know, Ford had transfered them to JWA, and since JWA is out of business since a looong time, who now owns them? I've read somewhere (I think in Jimbo's build thread) that Safire had registered the shape...

Russ, I didn't count you in the list, because: 1: I forgot you :shy: 2: I can't judge for everyone if it is worthless I've read on this forum that there is 2500+ drawings for the entire car... So it's obvious that 250 drawings won't be enough for anybody to re-design the entire car...

Re: Original Chassis Drawings Hope we'll be enough interested... We now have to find someone willing to "sell" his CD... Caus', If PaulGTdrawings is still arround, not sure he will accept to sell anything else... Jimmy? Ready to sell or not? Thanks Olivier.

Re: Original Chassis Drawings I emailed him, and he was asking 500£. Too much for myself. If ten guys bought it for this price... He now can offer nice hollidays to his familly... Couldn't agree more... Just a question of money perhaps? But, really, I can't believe it. Of course, it is of...

Re: Original Chassis Drawings Hum... It seems that they are the same drawings advertised here by "PaulGT40". He was asking 500£ for the 250 drawings. If any of you guys who bought the CD is ready to share, I'm in with another 100$! But if the files are availables to download. Even if there...
