    Extra air in - scoops.

    Re: MKII vents Hi, this is how I solved it, during driving it blows air into the compartment and in traffic jams you can see the hot air escaping through the ducts, so no air jam there..... Cheers (C)arlos

    If you ride in a GT40 to the grocery store and you take care about "looking cool" while entering/leaving the car the sales lady must be very attractive :-)

    Fred, I tried it a few times, and my experiences are not the best if you drive the car regular and need to clean it often....for my cobra the paint was washed away over time and it looks really bad now....all blocks I am doing right now are bare metal finish .... I can't imagine it was the...

    Hi Brian, hmmmm ok thx for the information. The car seems to be in Amsterdam right now and is undergoing a restoration. At least this is what the add is saying...I wonder how they want to make it street legal in germany :-) This will be a very funny discussion with the "Inspector of the day "...

    Can I convert a GT40 to a "Spyder"?

    I can offer you removable door tops, either full fiber, or just as a frame with a makrolon window inlet.. I am currently playing with a set of removable door tops made of aluminum, also just as a frame with a window inlet, but I guess this will be to expensive for resale once it is done ... If...

    Tom, I just can guess that less power lines means less interferences on the signal lines ( speedometer, tank, oil pressure and others) ...but I might be wrong.... :-! -:? Also if you do the honest calculation for the big power cable you need something like 6q2 cable to run sufficient power...

    Hi Trev, my frame is powder coated and it was done around 2 years ago. But I have to say, it was done by a friend of mine doing this for living and his customers are out of the heavy industry so he has got quite a lot of experience with reliability. Also he did my Cobra Frame and all suspension...

    Hi, Doc: Thx a lot, will do ....practical experience is the best :-) Sam: I did already several wirings on my own, but I like the different approach here, as I like the goodies like Error Detection, separating control wire from power wire and switching the power as close to the consumer as...
