    Changing pedal location

    It took a long time (all day) to fix the assembly with those 2 bolts. We can go and get the inspection done tomorrow then, so we can get a temporary license plate. Then we can drive it down to Farmers Branch where someone can take a look at it. EDIT: I cannot align them, all I could do was to...

    Changing pedal location

    Yes, thank you :) I re-read the topic, and understood what Richard said a few posts back. I got over that part, now the problem is that the bottom right bolt doesn't line up with the hole. The two top ones are all right, but the bottom one doesn't want to cooperate. I can't do anything with the...

    Changing pedal location

    Hi everyone, We've been trying to follow the contortionist way of bringing the pedals forward (they're sitting in the farthest position), and there is absolutely no way the pedals can be lifted out of that metal brace thing. There are railings where we can see the empty bolt holes, but we...

    Superformance GT40 questions... need help :)

    Hi Jack, We love to watch races, but we don't participate in them. Our car is not built for racing, it doesn't have any of the necessary safety equipment like the roll cage. We checked out the website and videos from the race though, and it looks like it's a lot of fun. It sure seems like the...

    I took "right side" as what it would mean to us where we live, the correct side for USA rules :)

    Thank you ^_^ You made me do a double take there, even though I know for certain it is on the correct side. :D I'm the kind of person who, if gets asked whether you've got your keys or wallet, will double check the purse even if it was 30 seconds ago I put all the stuff in there. :D (Dealer's...

    Superformance GT40 questions... need help :)

    Hi everyone, We've been very busy looking into all the different aspects of becoming a GT40 owner (insurance, etc. etc.). We have been hindered a bit in our efforts by a pretty bad ice storm covering everything in our area in solid ice since Tuesday. Today was the first time we were out driving...

    @Jimmy: Always loud and hot? That's what we're hoping for! Bring it on! I didn't see the need to ask questions that were either of no concern to us, or that would be the way we'd love for it to be. :) Thank you for the good wishes, I appreciate it! ^_^

    Superformance GT40 questions... need help :)

    I may have misphrased my first statement where I said "he cannot travel". Let me make a correction here, he simply does not want to travel at this point. He's not 70 years old and half crippled. I'm sorry if I implied it, but it sounds like that's how you guys picture him, when nothing could...

    Superformance GT40 questions... need help :)

    The surgery was 8 weeks ago, and right now he's working out an hour and 15 minutes 3 times a week doing aerodyne, weights and elliptical. We also walk 1.5-2 miles 3 days a week, 3 of those days when he doesn't do the rehab. He is not by any means close to being disabled or weak. He is working...

    Thank you guys, for the additional info! Rick, that is very cool how the Superformance dealers work long distance with warranty and such... We're still thinking about whether we want a GT40 or not... so many things to think about and consider. We don't make rash decisions. If my husband decides...

    Superformance GT40 questions... need help :)

    Unfortunately it's such a huge drawback that there is no Superformance dealer in North Texas... We simply don't know what we'd do or where to take the car if something happened to it, be it the chassis, wheels, engine, or any part of it. :(

    Superformance GT40 questions... need help :)

    Thank you so much for the informations, they are extremely helpful! Could someone please elaborate on the tax issue? Let's say we'd buy the one kcoffield suggested. Since it's on ebay (sold by AutoHaus, a Superformance dealer in Virginia), it'd be an online purchase out of state, would we...

    Superformance GT40 questions... need help :)

    Hi everyone, We've been thinking about buying a Superformance GT40. Here are some questions that we couldn't find answers to online: 1.) How much would it cost to have the car shipped (we live just north of Dallas)? 2.) Would we have to pay a gas guzzler tax? (Is the car qualified as a...
