Yes, the small market is the biggest problem. I think the latches are far from the only part that fits the hard to find category. No company in their right mind would tool up to meet these needs. Their business is their path to personal wealth. And there is nothing wrong with that. IMHO what is needed is an enthusiast who can remake these parts but is not into it for a large profit, but for the love of the car. That person would be a rare bird. Of course there will be those for whom money is just another tool and more power too them. On the other end of the stick will be those love sick boys of the 60's looking to drive the dream but can't buy their way in. What is really need here is a GT40 foundation for all things GT40. Non Profit, tax deductible, and staffed by volunteers. A repository for info on real, kit and custom alike where anyone could go and find out how xy was put together and what are the upgrades and fixes, ect, ect. I wonder if Bill Gates is into these cars... hmmm seed money???
