Shine can last. I have a GTD front clip which got damaged and replaced in 1992 and has been sitting outside ever since and it is still shiny! 4 inch tubes? Wasn't that the tube size on a cobra?

Definitely not GTD standard plate pictured in the first post.

Dropped the KVA GT40 off this morning at Brooklands. Lots of nice stuff there! GT40s.bot picked up this sale thread so hopefully I am allowed to just repeat it here? 1969 Ford GT40 Mk. I Recreation | eBay

Week Monday

I have been asked to help transport the MK1 KVA to the auction. I have never seen a KVA built to this high standard or with careful choice of parts. It is very impressive. Also intrigued to see how it goes as it is miles above your average KVA standard.

Don't Hi Spec make a hand brake calliper now?

As Graham says, rose joints and heat shielding should make it work fine.

Southern GT do a GTD to southern GT top hung pedal box which has a balance bar if you wish to go that route. Cheaper than tilton. If you are keeping servos then if you have 4 pot fronts and the rear cosworth ie GTD uprated rear brakes then that is not a bad balance on the original GTD pedal...

If you are going near a race track with your car then the AP option is the best route. They won't let you down as it is what they are made for. Your rear brakes are your weak point so at least change to the cosworth caliper scorpio disc at the rear then a 4 pot system up front will work with...

This is so sad. Knew Roy for 26 years and he was very inspirational to me both within and without the GTD40 Car Club. An amazing chap who had an extraordinary life story. I hope the video Andrew sent some of us can be linked to here as it sums up Roy so well and returned a smile to my face...

1 inch in front of the other? New one on me so would beg to differ on that statement!

cut out the Irish pub and the Belgian beer and its pretty accurate!!!!

Frees Suzi up for TG?

Might have been TR6? But still Triumph..... Or just cut the spline off and weld on a removable steering wheel boss which makes getting in and out easier all round!

I have a good trip coming up on Remembrance Weekend and seems I have been given more of a star billing than expected! On 6th to 8th November at Anglesey Race Circuit Mission Motorsport are running their 2015 Race of Remembrance event and it is a great event and one I am pleased to be part...

Was due to go to the semi final between Australia and Argentina, tickets bought in the vain hope of a northern hemisphere team playing in it! Hopes dashed so anyone interested in them? Face value £350 each, two available.

Definitely Cortina and when you mount it raise it up 5/8 inch to reduce your bump steer!

Air has to be taken from the high point in an engine else it gets trapped. Hence the GTD take off point. Some aftermarket inlet manifolds at the rear of the engine have been known to cause issues depending on how they feed water across the heads so sometimes a bleed line is taken from the rear...

There are two stages to bleeding the air from a GTD, you let the air in the engine out at the engine end and you let the air in the rad out at the radiator end. Simple. Once you have driven the car a short way repeat the exercise and it is soon done. Once the rad is full of water where can...
