Hi Paul, welcome to the world of GT40 addiction. Did you get along to the NEC Classic Car Show, the Club was there with a fantastic display. As you're at the info gathering stage then joining the GT40 Enthusiasts Club in the UK is a very good start. This will put you in touch with a huge...

Hi Graham (and anyone following this thread) So it's official then as from this moment forward a Porsche 917 will be known as a 'GT 35.375". I will describe it as such in the Club magazine and no one will ever know that we sneaked a bit German muscle into a quartet of Slough's finest...

Hi Graham, I looked at the signs on the M6 on Sunday evening with dismay as they showed the A14 was closed between J7 & J9. I hope this didn't cause you and the 917 too much delay in getting home. I'm sure the thousands of visitors to the show were stunned to find not one but two 917's to...

Bravo……well done to the committee for organising the AGM at the Heritage Motor Centre, Gaydon, Warwickshire. Fantastic venue right by Junction 12 of the M40 and great to look round. The venue had laid on parking for the GT40's by the main entrance and therefore we caused loads of interest, not...

Hi Guys, Having started this thread …. guess what, I now can't make it on Sunday. My presence is required for a photo-shoot in North Wales (narrow gauge railway stuff). Hope you all have a great time. If I get back in time I'll have a blast up on Monday. Cheers Steve.

Just to help you guys lighten up (and this not a joke) in the UK parliament yesterday a right honourable member, having heard the fact that the UK eats more baked beans than any other European country, tabled a question to the house, asking if therefore UK citizens were contributing to global...

Is anyone taking their car to Stoneleigh on the May bank holiday weekend. I would hate to be there on my own. Steve.

Hi Nick, Just been having a look at your build. Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe the steering wheel in your last post is a FAIL. I don't think you are allowed to have holes in in the wheel. Mick at SGT will know for sure. Always interesting to watch peoples builds …. keep the posts coming...

Hi Robin, Glad you are planning to visit the show. You will find that it's huge and masses to see (and lust after!). Come and say hi at our stand …. you will be made very welcome. There will probably be around 6 of us on the stand, usually overwhelmed by the number of people who are...

Hi Dave, Trust you had a good journey home from the NEC last November. I'm interested in your question because you may recall I've been a strong advocate of Classicline since putting my car with them. There must be a value figure above which they ask for an independent valuation as they did...

Hi Keith, You may interested to know that when I purchased my GT40 last year that I asked around about insurance and also enquired from the previous owner regarding his insurance. He was with Adrian Flux and despite us being the same age and the same value being used, Flux quoted me twice as...

Hi Everyone, I would welcome input on fitting Weber IDA's to my car. Many of you will have seen the car at the NEC Classic Motor Show and some of you will know it as the car built by Phil Thompson in Sussex. It is basically an MDA based vehicle and Phil appears to have done a superb job in...

Hi Keith, I do not know if Michael is on the GT40s forum. If you are a member of the GT40 Enthusiasts Club then you can find his contact details in the members directory. Failing that, let me have your email and/or contact details and I will pass them on to him. best regards Steve Dean
