I was interested to read the comment 'Gulf colors are a must'. I assume folks here are aware that the blue-orange scheme has been granted full trademark protection in Europe, no words or logo, just the paint scheme. A rare thing to copyright but they did it and anyone planning to paint their GT40 blue 'n orange will need approval from Gulf.
TJ lives in the USA therefore he isn't subject to Gulf's trademark. And in the US enforcement of a trademark when the item in question isn't being used for commercial trade is really difficult to do. In any event, the Gulf trademark is for the EU only.

Onoz, these owners need to get permission....but I digress, back to your discussion of GT40s.
