    It's no good, I miss my Bike too much! Bikes are in my blood, Dad proved that. For those Bikers amongst you you will understand where I am coming from. I have been riding bikes since the age of 3 and just can't let go, thought I could but I just can't. I live on a popular biking route and...

    SouthernGT No8

    Hi Martin, On my belly skin I have drilled about twenty 1 1/2" holes to help this area breath as much as possible. In the top of the tunnel above the pipes I am putting sticky backed insulating foam with metallic type surface nearest the pipe surface. The general build process has been very...

    Martin, I sympathise whole heartedly (if that's how you spell it). It's a weird sensation isn't it, a mixture of extreme pain and "I don't believe I just did that"! Look forward to seeing your car finished. Any ideas when you hope to turn the key?

    No galvanic corrosion then, excellent! Have you a windy rivet puller, me thinks you will need it?

    Martin, What ever rivet you end up using make sure it is of a similar material spec to the sheet - not the chassis. For example; do not use a steel pop as they will eat into the sheet and then be a pain to drill out. After all, the sheet is only a cladding and not really a stressed part of...

    ZFQ new proposed GT40 transaxle

    Chris, The ZF is a heavy box. Can the Q be any lighter? Great work.

    Southern GT #006.

    Thanks for the interest Martin, sorry the reply has been slow in coming: Build is "progressing". Got to get the house finished first. As long as the chassis is complete by summer I'll be chuffed. I work at Heathrow so been rather busy up there too in recent weeks! Things are settling down...

    1968 - lap of Le mans

    Many thanks Julian, I could watch videos like this till the cows come home. Sure there must be a market for this type of thing, just in car shots. They create great inspiration to get the build finished.

    Southern GT #006.

    Re: Southern GT #006 Sitrep! Panels. Still very much engulfed in fabricating these to the chassis. Actually more like titivating the panels supplied by Mick Sollis. The panels are supplied very slightly oversize which makes life much easier when fitting to the chassis. Mick has been...

    Plastics Expert?

    Bit short sighted of me really but this forum could help me with something: Nearly four years ago I came up with a new idea for steering devises for Skateboards and other "lean to steer" type contraptions. I skate a lot myself (started in 1976!) and have a credible mechanical background. In...
