I'm not genned up on bidding, but how come the £20,000.00 bid was withdrawn at the last minute? Cold feet? Geoff.

Just received mine - Best so far. Re-reading Claude's race reports! Still looking for a 'low priced' GT40! Cheers, Geoff.

After over 40 years of hoping, (Le Mans 1967), I am at last able to seriously look for a GT40. I'm on a limited budget, so am looking for a part built kit, or a low spec/tired car. If anybody has, or knows of, anything suitable, please PM me as soon as possible. Looking forward to your...

Hi Mark, In my past, I was involved in rally car preparation of Escort Cosworths - We used a Peugeot wiper spray bar - Peugeot Part No was 643861. It wasn't expensive, and was very effective. Hope this helps. Cheers, Geoff.

Hi Allan, Yes, its £13.29 + P&P. I'll have to get it!

I read Henry Allingham's book, and these gentleman are true heroes - Their passing inspires a real 'pause for thought'.

I have just 'found' this book on Amazon: "Go Like Hell - Ford and Ferrari and Their Battle for Speed and Glory at Le Mans" by A.J. Baime. The title sounds a bit 'blood and guts', but this title seems to have slipped under my radar! Has anybody read it, and is it any good? Cheers...

I have no axe to grind - How very sad.

My wife, Sheila, bought me a GT40!! It might be a Speed Freaks model, but hey, its a GT40. I've spent the morning on the carpet, doing powerslides. Hope you all got what you want, and wishing you you a Very Merry Christmas and Good Luck in the New Year. Cheers, Geoff.

Received mine tonight after work - Another superb issue! Ordering my calendar in the morning! Merry Christmas to everyone.

Thanks. Can't wait. Cheers, Geoff.

I visited the GT40 Enthusiasts Stand at the Race Retro earlier this year, and spoke to (I think) Chris Notley who had his RML 40 on display. He mentioned that his car was due to appear in a future article in either EVO or Octane magazine, comparing his car to the original GT40s. Anybody...

Wish I had a GT40! We travelled down from Carlisle - 216miles each way! Hoped to stock up on mugs and tee shirts, but nothing to be seen. Always next year. A very good display of cars, though. Geoff.

Got mine on Friday. This magazine just gets better and better. Thanks to all for a great read and a superb DVD. Good to see the the Club Display at Stoneleigh Historic Motorsport Show - Chris Notley said his car was to be featured in a forthcoming issue of EVO magazine (?). Any idea when...

Hi Brian, I can't help with dimensions, but according to the GT40 SAE Papers, the "wiper arm and blade were modified aircraft components. The main portion of the arm was stainless steel tubing. A spring loaded blade pressure adjustment was incorporated in the section that mounted to the...

Thanks for all the advice. Where would we be without the Forum! Cheers and Seasons Greetings to all. Geoff.
