Hi guys, I have not posted in awhile, but still check this site regularly. I believe I may know a little history on this car. I have CAV chassis 1A01, and based on the vin tag this car is 1A02. I bought my car from Bob Lacy a few years back and he had told me that all of the CAV mono car...

Jim, Please keep the pictures coming, as we all are interested. I am curious if all these parts are being assembled onto an original style tub. So, where are all these parts going?

Monterey I suggest meeting just before noon on saturday in the Pantera paddock. I will be there and I believe David will also be there for a bar-b-que being sponsored by Pantera International. We will both have our CAV's there.

I will be there on saturday and will be parked in the Pantera club paddock. We should arrive around 8 a.m. to avoid traffic, and will also be in the paddock area around noon for a bar-b-que lunch sponsored by Pantera International.

Hi Ron, Not planning on going to Vegas this year. To many other things going on to break away. Anyway, have fun in Vegas.

Nice purchase, Mark. You will no doubt have a lot of fun with your new toy, and don't worry about the cameras you will get used to it. By the way, your garage looks a lot like mine with a GT40 parked nexted to a Pantera. I even have the same extra set of Pantera rims sitting on the floor...

Did you check the other side of the car? If the owner had two identical stripes then the FORD lettering would be at the rear of the stripe on one side of the car and at the front on the other. Or he just put both of them on backwards! Anyway, it is a nice body color and the dark color rims...

It will no doubt be easier to use whatever is supplied with the car, which I have heard is a cable shift. I used a cable shift on my CAV with the Getreg. I had it set up correctly and it worked well, but was not even close to the shift feel in my Pantera. After converting my CAV over to a ZF...

Ross, I am not sure if Bobs chassis mount is rubber bushed where it meets the ZF cover plate with the ears, but the CAV supplied chassis mount has a rubber bushing with an inner steel sleeve.

Joe, Welcome to the world of GT40's. I own CAV mono #1 and am running the ZF with the fuel injection from Very Cool Parts. The fuel injection works great once you have it programmed. If you search around you can find some pictures of my engine set-up on the forum. Good luck with the build!

Good answer Howard. I am running the same motor with fuel injection and the 1.71:1 rockers. Actually I went with the 340 hp version, which had the slightly bigger cam. Why the bigger cam had 5 hp less I am not sure, but I went with the bigger is better theory. The car is plenty fast and VERY...

I used the same one as Victoron my car and it makes a huge difference. By the way I am 6' 2" and a little on the tall side for a GT40.

Thanks for the help, guys. California car cover was the place I was looking for.

I know, use the search function, which I did with no luck. We have talked about car covers in the past. As I recall there is a company in California that makes one for the GT40. Anyone remember the name of the company? Thanks

Deals are out there. I was very fortunate and my ZF found me. I was at a car show with the GT and some guy came up to me and asked if the GT40 originally had a ZF box in it. He went on to say that he had a Pantera and when he bought it he received an extra box in the deal and wondered if I...

The pedal assembly looks very nice and appears to have the same master cylinder for the clutch. I will e-mail you direct with further questions. Looking forward to see and sit in one of the newer chassis.

Jean, Are the new uprights a direct replacement? Also, any pictures of the new pedal assembly?

So, $13200 for the delux roller? Goran, your english is better than my swedish, are these prices acurate in US dollars? How about a turn-key minus price?

I think it was like $365 US. Talk to Jean at CAV and he will fix you up.

I experienced the exact same problem, and regardless of being machined correctly or not, there is not much of a lip to retain the bearing in my opinion. I had spun the outer race on the left side and could hear a noise while cornering. I could jack the car up and rock the wheel assembly back...
