Hello John I was over your way last year and never gave you a thought, sorry. The nose cone was from Fraser`s, he moulded me an over size left hand and right hand side, put the two bits onto the car, cut and joined where they fitted and hey presto...a wide mothed frog! The rest I made up with...

Hi there been busy for a while so nearly got some time back, to keep me busy the last 18months I built a car for `the wife`.....well she said she wanted one so damned if I was going to pay some one and miss all the fun.

John Just noticed the change of address for you...have you gone seeking the heat to warm the bones?

Leon HRSCC is the running the event but I am applying for the COD in my own rights, The others such ar HRC and TACCOC are just so pure! that I would be a disease worse than the plague at any meeting they ran. About the only thing I am winging it on a bit is the transaxel, best info I can get is...

not me...two cars went off before me, that run off area is very short so an extra careful other wise you end up joining the other circuit. I would not like to run out off brakes there at all. Cheers Just filling out a 16 page document for a certificate of descrition which will enable me to run...

Had the car out at Taupo in December and finaly tracked down what my soft brake pedal issues were. When I built the car I must have been determined to have effortless brakes as I had built the pedal on a 7.2 ratio. I have always had `soft` brakes with too much travel that appeared to have air in...

Went to the Chris Amon festival at Hampton Downs yesterday where there were more gt40`s than I have ever seen, one in particular claims to be a genuine Le Mans car, any ideas. I have also managed to upload on you tube a brief recording of my car at Pukekohe listed as `Mclaren m8b replica at...

Well its been a long time coming now here`s the video if I can attach it correctly. I ended up getting a DIGITECH VHS TO DVD converta and copying my vhs footage which had a remote mic out the back between the exhausts so that you can hear the sounds. Have just run at a fun meeting in Taupo with...

Leon Did i read further back that you were thinking of using fibre glass for your tank lining, that is pretty common in marine situations so for better info try HIGH MODULAS SYSTEMS OR EPIGLASS and they have specialist info that makes the task easy. I have used resin for both marine exhausts and...

Russ Can only repeat all the wishes of a strong recovery, Many people have taken an intense interest in this project and to say that we are gutted for you is an understatement. I wish you well and keep up the inspiration. Cheers Russell

Now you can see why I was infected with the urge to build one myself. I can honestly say that it was a special moment the first time sitting on the grid and still is. Its great to see the smiles on peoples face when they to hook back into memories of that era. Cheers Russell

Wally Plenty of these down under in NZ if you get stuck. Russell
