Silver Fern GT40

Some pics of the Graeme Beck built GT40 at last weekends SFOS meet at Teretonga. Gradually getting sorted and driven by his daughter Racheal. Graeme passed away a few years ago with car still on the assembly table and at that 95% done, 90% to go point that many of you will be familiar with. Car is now showing some speed as they iron the bugs out. Photos by Ron Veint.

Great looking car - good to see it on the track!
The Mini-Lites are a nice touch!
 
'Minilites' are 3 piece made by NZ company 'Arrow Wheels', IIRC they started out as a small company in ChCh called 'Tafro Eng ', been thru a couple of owners to date. Single seater is another project he had underway for 'Club' type car that was relatively simple to build and could be configured to accept most current front wheel drive engine/trans packages.
