Robin, may I add my welcome and if you happen to be down in sunny Devon drop me a line, any excuse to get the 40 out is gratefully received, if you haven't yet decided on a particular car I would suggest you try a few before you make that leap, at least then you will know what set up you want.

Welcome Back Barry, how about a little history from your time in the wilderness?

She also married James Bond in OHMSS but got killed by the bad guys Sorry that is her character married........

And this is what she looked like in her cat suit, careful or you'll drown in that drool:thumbsup:

Tim, no Ford parts then?:laugh: You could be a pioneer in building bridges between the Holden and the Ford camps. Or are the feelings so high you might get lynched? Looks like you will have one hell of a ute there and if you are taking bets with your mates you should be quite safe looking at the...

Alan, not sure if this publication is available stateside, but I subscribe to Practical Classics. This mag does not cover GT40s as being "not practical" or too costly, but they do have lots of "how to do" articles showcasing every aspect of vehicle restoration and repair, some of which are good...

PP had that wonderful affliction of story tale dancing. On "never mind the buzzcocks" ( for our overseas friends - a satirical panel show loosly based on music) there was a section where all they showed was PP dancing - no music, and the guests had to work out what they were dancing to, most...

Well I completely failed to get the recording I wanted so with reference to "Originally Posted by Charlie Farley My brother has managed to burn from Sky to 4 dvds. Who wants to take it from there for you guys in the US ?" Can I have a set too? Obviously I'm willing to pay for them if that's...

Welcome Trevor, enjoy the Tornado and the site here. There is a wealth of knowledge and also a good source of parts or leads to sources and you need just ask. As for the Ford V8 being compulsory I couldn't comment except that if you intend to show it I'm sure you will soon wish it did have a...

This is a clip from 5th Gear where there is a staged motorway pile up assuming 70mph in fog so no slowing down, I drive the same car as the Merc in the clip but I would hate to drive the little fiat. Foggy Motorway Crash Video

Richard - I second the comment made earlier that there is not really a "bad" place to choose in Europe, it just depends on your personal taste. I have travelled extensively around most of Europe and here are a few high spots. Belguim - Gent or Brugges, both "gothic" cities with fantastic scapes...

Kirby I thought that in the USA there was only a rear number plate required, shows how out of date I am. As for airflow, MDA fitted my number plate at an angle just in front of the rad so that the air actually gets pushed into the rad at a higher flow rate than the car is going. This works...

Bob, that's just not fair, showing off like that. I couldn't even get that in my garage as it's too tall, what a great bit of kit though, as someone who trained on all the machine tools many years ago I would love the chance to re kit myself out and get lost for the weekend making wonderful hot...

Andy, As I will be at a show all day Sunday I will be setting my TV to record. Cant guarantee anything but might be able to sort something out after.

Ashley, may I add my welcome and also point out that there is a GTD advertised on ebay at the moment,classified for £12K here is the link Ford GT40 GTD race on eBay (end time 26-Jul-10 20:42:36 BST) It's currently unfinished but I'm sure there are others on here that would know it and it's...

Welcome Pete, do you know which manufacturer's GT body you have? Is it the full Mk3 or just the front end in that style with a standard rear? Although the Mk3 original was not built in as greater numbers as the racers that makes it rarer and even replicas are few and far between, it may not be...

And one of the two cars (John's and mine)
