Who are you calling oldies? In the 60's flying was for the wealthy. Ordinary people travelled overseas by ship.

Great video. I had to run it several times to pick up all the safety violations. What passenger seat?

Steed's car was a Broadspeed built for racing, I believe.

I have always loved the Avengers Jag. Go for a really wild shape, with the lovely dark British Racing Green paint. Sadly, you need to stuff in a Chevvy or some V8 to get reliable engine power. Show us some pics?

An even handed debate here so far. Who could complain?

How's things, Kym? Been on any road trips lately? Back on F1, at least Weber had a happy ending.

Of course, the Liberal crap is the worst. Ron, I'm grateful you keep a level head through all this conflagration. I enjoy the Paddock, just ávoid things that don't interest me, political point-scoring, Pete, etc. (only prodding you, Pete, now get back to polishing your cars).

Looking forward to seeing more of 1103.

Good Grief, Richard. I trust GT40's were not supplied originally (the Mk III's) with a box of condoms. The 40 driver did not indulge in such frivolity (times change).

Are you stirring the pot again Pete? There's a Paddock for trouble makers like you.

You are going very well, Dimi. Looks good. Incidentally, I believe Simmonds Wheels shut down some time ago, so are these NOS? Where do you find room on the V8 to drive a power steering pump? Pretty crowded I would have thought.

Do you think T70 Spyders are over-sophisticated and over-developed? Look what you could have done, Chris!

Bill, this must be the oldest DRB still being built. But your car looks fanBLOODYtastic. Wow, that is so great. I'm really impressed Bill, and as you persist with all the final gremlins you are going to have a great GT40.

Simon, are you planning on retaining the semi-trailing arms at the rear? These can work quite well, but are not as sophisticated in their geometry as the real 40 set-up.

Hi Ray. You sound like a complete mechanical nut-case. Should fit in really well here. Talk to Fran again; you'll get inspired to start a project.

DRB's tend to have speakers in the top forward section of the door, above a handy remote interior door latch. Stereo head units tend to be central under the dashboard, although one in the attached pics is to one side. I've also seen the head unit installed in the driver's door.

It's always a wild time in Waikato.

Cup-holders?? We don't need no pesky cup-holders :) Seriously, the great chassis, engineering, and bodywork is let down (in a street super-car) if the interior isn't great. So many "kit cars" (horrible expression) have a crap interior that doesn't work, with a flat slab of polished plywood with...

If everyone is driving GT40's, I'm having a Fiat Bambino.

I thought these quad cam modular engines had intakes pointing to the side. Ones I've seen are like this.
