After thinking about this long and hard, I’ve come to the conclusion that I am no longer at a point in my life where I will be able to / desire to finish my GT 40 project. So, It’s time to sell it off to someone who will take it to completion and enjoy the journey! So; Standard Spec DRB...

Gary, Welcome to the forum.You will find any question you have, answered here by some very knowledgeable people. I have DRB #5 and I took my time building it. Great car. I have a build thread http://www.gt40s.com/forum/gt40-build-logs/13742-drb-5-a.html It is an incomplete thread because it...

Howard, Would love to get one from Fran. However, my car(DRB #5) is an Australian car and have been told that the windshields for these cars are flatter(5" curvature vs. 6") than Fran's. I believe the RCR cars are more accurate than mine in that respect(maybe others as well). I have been...

Hi Jim Congratulations on your effort. Have you ever thought about dropping down under? We have a great little track in country NSW called Mount Panorama, they have a 12 hour race in early Febuary each year with an invitational class that would suit the P4/5 down to the ground. As a bonus...

Here is how I did the hooks to my DRB. The framework of the DRB's comes down to the front of the nose so adding the hooks is a bit easier. Because of body placement a spacer had to be added so that the hook would clear. Most towing for me would be getting the car onto a truck bed, and the...

I bought mine off Ebay. Look it up on DRB#5. Quite a story. If you decide to get one off Ebay, be sure you make them include an inspection of the trans. If necessary put the funds in an escrow account with a few days to get it inspected. Then do your due dilagence and make sure it is what you...

You guys are not sending enough jokes...here is one a friend sent me from one of the 'down under islands',:thumbsup:

Michael, It may be hard to stay focused when things start going south, But as one who has built a dream(GT-40 DRB#5), I can tell you there is so much pride when you do finish and drive it down the road, it is hard to think of those days!! Bill

Hi There are several races that we'd Love to do down under and if we get more sponsorship or are able to sell some customer cars we will. If any of you make it to the Ring in 2015 let us know! Best

Info first. My engine setup is a 351W with a 930(inverted). I have a DRB. DRBs have a subframe members to support the engine and trans. So lets look at several issues you are facing. First let me say that my 930 sits on the frame. The frame measures level on its feet, even with a 4" ground...

...is the last lay up for mine. There are some updates with mine but not on the build log. More like redo or rebuild!! Go here for more news on DRB#5: http://www.gt40s.com/forum/gt40-tech-exterior-interior-ac-trim/38802-experiment.html I had one stupid mistake(not the first or the last)...

...to the car. He has asked for my help, but I have been tied up with other apects of my life along with repairing my own missteps with DRB#5. My repairs are now complete(or as complete as I can get them), and I am considering taking a road trip over to Athens to see him and how his work is...

...good progress. Slow and easy is the way. You have some good local support for your build. Wish I had had some at times.(local that is) Mine is DRB#5 and probably the oldest of the DRBs running. You will go through some trials and tribulations but the end result is worth it. My build thread is...

I can talk from experience as I have built a few replicas now. I would really look into after sales service. There is nothing worse than having a kit that the Manufacturer wont or cant supply parts. I can tell you that the after sales at RCR is awesome and I dont even have one of Frans...

I too am about to face this potential issue with my project. I will be using an LS6 motor out if a 02 Z06 with a Boxster S (G86-20 transaxle) and wonder about drivability with this setup. Have you made a decision regarding which setup you will use and which if any modifications to gearing you...

Hi Jim I to was at phillip Island,if i had of known we could have caught up, just a fantastic event. Fellow forum member Trevor Booth was there in his Nota and had a very succesfull weekend. He drives the backside of his car including one race where he had to start from the rear of the grid...

I have finally become adventursome with DRB#5. I have had it on the road and off the road and now on the road for good. First outing was for 5 miles as the shifter would only give me 1st and 3rd. Made the adjustments and a week later, out for the second drive and got about 15miles before some...
