Oliver,
Nice to see you are appreciating different cultures. Everybody has different prescribed holiday periods throughout the world, I mean I don't grumble that you have Independence Day on the 4th July - even though I do think its nice of you all in the US to annually celebrate my last day of freedom before I got married on the 5th /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/1poke.gif

Yes! The 4th is 1 day not 3 weeks! You can thank Cristopher Columbus and you Wife for you captivity! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banana.gif

Merry Christmas guys. I'm glad that they were able to get them out. Dispite what some may think Those fellows in S. Africa RF are working hard to get the cars out. They are now on a roll and hopefully it will stay that way.
I also want to thank all my customers that have e mailed me with kind words and understanding about the delays.

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL !!!

The pictures look great - it would appear that the guys in SA have done a terrific job.

I await delivery of kit #119 in mid January with eager anticipation so that I can get started on the road to GT40 ownership at last.

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO EVERYONE, especially Robert and his boys in SA.

Chris

Does RF offer an option to upgrade to round wheels? I'd like the ones shown higher in the thread instead of those square ones...

Happy Holidays!
