That is indeed the applicator. I used the UPOL Raptor epoxy primer as it has a slight etching property to it

Personally, I don't use truck bed liner for underside painting because of experience with it being a little too hard. It has the tendency to chip and water can enter under it, and even with the epoxy primer, I've seen it strip away in sheets once water ingress occurs. Others experiences may...

Charlie, depending on price I could be interested in a set of Hartwell latches in the not too distant future

Definitely interested in one of these also

Morten, that would be fantastic, no such thing as too much information when scratch building! Do you want anything for them?

Thanks Morten. I'm going for C5 suspension but the wheelbase will help put me in the right direction

As per the title, I am looking for some dimensions from someone who may have a part built chassis to hand. I bought a flat pack chassis second hand that hadn't been opened since shipping from Darren at GTForte (boo, hiss) to the guy that sold it to me and surprise, surprise there are several...

I saw those too, even had a dabble at £300 but no way was I buying old magnesium for £2k Jamie, if you intend to use the wheels, I would get them x-rayed/magnafluxed before even considering paying further out of pocket on restoring them. Additionally you can go the route of of plastic injection...

Before I start accumulating parts left and right, I am trying to do my due diligence with regards to the registration process in the UK. I am trying to avoid a Q plate as by my understanding it can serious impact the resale of the car in the future, and it is legally very difficult to do...

To note, I now have a copy of the .dxf files for a laser cutter for the ali panels and will be happy to help out others who may be in need

Thanks for the vids Mike, all very valuable stuff. Looking forward to getting started on the project now that I have (most) of the chassis here

As the title, I am about to take posession of a GTForte chassis in kit form. As the company is now defunct, I am unable to purchase the plans for the ali plating. If anybody has a copy that they themselves have purchased, or can point me in the right direction of what plans I need to get my own...

Hi all, thanks for the warm welcome. I'm very much aware of Darren and the troubles with GTForte, however as the other companies only offer prebuilt chassis and I want to do a scratch build with some modifications to the chassis, I'm not left with a great deal of choice. That combined with a...

Hi Dean, another member here from the Midlands, will also be starting a GT40 soon, plenty of experience restoring and customising classics so if you ever need an extra pair of hands even just for the heavy lifting, give me a shout

Hey all, I know forums aren't really the done things these days thanks to the likes of Facebook, but they are a trove of information and I will need plenty with my build! My names Chris, based in the Midlands for now and as I've just turned 40, wanted to line up my next project once I button...
