Jon, welcome to the forum, lots of good knowledge and helpful advice here, plus a lot of additional information you would never realise you wanted until you see it. There are also a number of running and project 40s in the UK. Depending on where you are, this Sunday may be a good time to go out...

Bill The usual place for photos is the Video and Picture thread within the Forum, but you can add to the Gallery as well. I'm probably not the best person to ask though, one of the moderators could help more.

John I can only echo what others have said. I too have wanted a GT40 since I was a small boy. Every move I made was done with that goal in mind and when the opportunity came I took it with both hands - it took me (appropriately) 40 years to work my way to getting the car of my dreams and you...

Welcome Bill, whereabouts in the UK are you? There are some widespread locations with GT40s in and you may be able to get to see one up close and personal.

I always try to stick with what "The Man" gave me and not try to enhance or otherwise endow myself with larger or longer Knobs. In the end you will find that the one that suits you best is the one you have, although mine is quite small it always gets the job done and I have never been found...

Porsche about to be lapped perhaps?

Ben, I have several signs and photos and for indoors shows I have a 7 foot by 7 foot exhibition display with 40+ photos and little bits of info about the original cars plus the spec of my own MDA Mk 1. This proves very popular and gives people the opportunity to see and read about the marque. I...

Chris Welcome, any Pics? I have an MDA Mk1 and may have some pics of yours at a show depending on age and colour scheme (presumably Gulf)

Hope this ad is OK here, it's the first time I've tried this, I have a brand new leather jacket for sale in the Steve McQueen style from the film LeMans. It has the stripes and the patches (see photo) but is in a rather fetching (if a little feminine) yellow. I ordered white so I could use it at...

Not sure if this applies to the RBT mentioned, but I had issues with some gears and found that the selector of the gearbox (Renault) was fouling the exhaust silencer on that side. I had cable shift and the fouling was preventing 2nd and 4th as well as reverse. Once I had moved the silencers a...

Trust me, on a 700 mile journey from southern Germany all in one day you need more than the V8 soundtrack to keep you company!

No that's an immobiliser port for connection by a "wand". the stereo does have a USB and an SD card port in it and the big shiny thing in the passenger footwell is a 600W amp driven from the auxilliary output of the head unit. Yes I can get it loud enough to be heard at any speed, but for some...

Keith, sorry it took so long, but here are the photos now. the set up works well in my car. Chis

If you live like that you may still not live past 80, it will just feel like you have!

Keith - Will do, I have a few pics to take of the interior anyway so will try to do it this week.

Here's a link to the item in the CBS website, unfortunately they will not allow copying of the pic for reprint. Column Mount Indicator Switch - INDSW3

Keith, I adapted mine from toggle switch on the dash to a stalk on the steering column by using an off the shelf brand new item from Car Builder Solutions. This does not self cancel but is neat and works well. Sorry no photos as yet but look at the CBS website to find the item. I was lucky in...

Trevor, I remember door cards like that and the window winders and lever from the mark 1 cortina we had way back in the day. What a great job you are doing on it and I'm sure it will be hard to let go come selling time. You should be proud of this work. By the way have you seen the advert for...

Dave, who is this Charlotte and how do you get just south of her?

Nothing to do with the Eddie Murphy film, but I thought I would see if there is anyone in the Nashville area that might like to meet during of the Weekend of the 2nd/3rd Feb. My work is bringing me over to the US and I am spending a few days in Chicago and then travelling down to Nashville on...
