My name is Dave Harvey. I have pleasure in announcing the takeover of GT40 Replications Ltd, now Phil Wares previous company. I would like to briefly state who I am and what I intend to do. I invite any queries from all parties.
Phil has run the company as an “interest” for a number of years and due to the increase in activity and the work this would create believed this was a good time to exit the management and ownership of the business. Phil has been retained as a consultant and I’m sure his extensive experience will continue to be a great assistance.
For my part this is a total and very exciting change in my career direction. My past has, for the majority of my working life, has been in Information Technology!! Prior to that I was training as a Civil Engineer so I believe I have an eye for good engineering. Born in NZ, I have lived and operated from Australia for 8 years then moved to London for 10 years in various management roles culminating in owning and developing a successful Cisco Network services house over 7 years focused on large media companies. I sold the company prior to Y2K.
Although maintaining interests in IT companies I love cars, fast cars (my last beauty prior to a GT40 was a Ferrari 355 F1GTS) and wrote down my dream job – making and servicing a global market of fast cars. I called Phil and the rest as they say is history.
I intend to increase capacity in all areas - traditional “kits”, complete cars and an online spares business. At this point I’m all ears and have read the GT40 forum so I understand the build manual is a priority as is the production of all information related to the car. The pricing is confusing on the web site so please bare with me I will rectify these as quickly as possible.
I do not profess to be an automotive expert but I have come from a services based business so I know how to react to queries. If I don’t have an answer I’ll keep you informed honestly of the progress until I do!!
I would honestly love to hear any comments good, bad or indifferent as I can only learn more about what my client needs and desires are.
My contact numbers, as they are not on the website as yet are, +64 9 480 2722 or +64 21 238 5114. Thank you for your time.
Regards,
Dave Harvey
