My CAV also has the lowered seat pans so head room is a bit better. the spf has a removable wheel, the...

    Best GT ?

    Door Locks?

    almost all street rods that use power door locks have a mechanism to open from the inside and a hidden cable from the outside. My SPF Daytona has power locks and no outside handle , but it does have an inside handle in case of power failure.

    SPF GT40 New Owner Observations/Problems

    Re: **New Owner Observations/Problems** I actually have no problem taking mine on extended trips, with minimal luggage of course. it is quite comfortable. I gave up on driving old classics long ago, ie. sixties era muscle cars, because they handle so poorly. Cobra, gt40s, Daytonas however...
