    Possible new owner of a Ford gt. A lot of doubts

    Amazing how tight this GT40 community is…:)

    ClubCobra - anyone know what happened to it?

    Unfortunately, I think many, if not most, regular contributors have abandoned the platform at this point due to constant stoppages and glitches. Not likely they’ll return.

    Who's attending the 2024 GT reunion?

    Wow, Rob, it looks great, my favorite GT40 color by far!

    What makes ERA GT40's so special?

    Derek, the early ERA cars were I believe mild steel, and later cars I think were stainless. Not sure about the roof material. Yes, I would equate ERA and RCR build quality, albeit completely different in design and construction under the fiberglass.

    trying to get below 103dB for Spa track day

    Chris, just a suggestion, but I’d angle both of those extra silencers in the same direction away from wherever the sensors are placed to measure the dB level, or maybe just replace the extra silencers with simple deflectors angled away from the sensors if you only need to come down 3 dB.

    What makes ERA GT40's so special?

    Btw Rick, Mac McClendon (Lola specialist) had an unbuilt early ERA GT40 kit stashed in one of his out buildings at his place here in North FL, could that be the one you’re referring to?

    What makes ERA GT40's so special?

    Just to add an endorsement to Rick’s insightful comments, I’ve seen finished examples of ERA GT40s (as well as cobras) at different venues spanning many years, and they’ve always represented among the very best that the replica industry has to offer. I don’t question their rising values at all.

    ClubCobra - anyone know what happened to it?

    I don’t disagree Ron, but Brett hasn’t shown any willingness to go that route. CC has been limping along for years, and now it’s on life support.

    It looks good, interesting that the sensor boss is machined off.

    ClubCobra - anyone know what happened to it?

    The site is effectively FUBAR at this point, functionally useless. Much talk about data corruption, don’t know if it can be resurrected.

    RCR GT40 Cinderella in France

    Jean-Marc, call RCR and inform them that you now own an RCR40. They will provide you with a member login password to access the online assembly manual, which will be helpful to you for things like baseline alignment specs. Suspension is completely adjustable as you’re aware, but must be...

    RCR GT40 Cinderella in France

    IDK Tim, my car is an early build, possibly earlier than Jean-Marc’s car and my car has the same aluminum structure your car has. I think some builders prefer a steel structure and fab it themselves. Welcome aboard Jean-Marc! I acquired my car under similar circumstances as yours. I can assure...

    Need cooling help please

    A lift is certainly better than laying on your back… Honestly, given your circumstances, I’d give the in-situ repair a try before anything else. What have you got to lose?

    Is it worth putting in a 427 side oiler?

    Randy, if you go with the short mechanical pump (M-8501-E351S), you’ll need to buy the CVF single, double or triple groove pump pulley, depending on your requirements. The kits CVF sells for the short pump are single, double or triple groove, but you can’t mix and match between kits. You can...
