Mike:
Thanks for your timely responses.
Like Johan said, we will be getting pretty much a raw, barely street-legal race car and the refinement and pristine cosmetics we are used to with new production cars just isn't gonna be there. Once we get past that realization, we will be much more content.
In period photos some of the race cars that finished Le Mans, Daytona, Sebring and other endurance races looked like hell at the end. Long-term appearance durability just wasn't a priority.
Bottom line: Who, a few years ago, thought a de facto Ford GT40 would be in reach of the Average Guy?
Although I'm not at liberty to go into it, there have been others with major issues regarding shortcomings of their SPF GT40 roller as delivered. Whether I buy this car or not will depend greatly on the quality and soundness of the item as delivered and the service and technical support from High Tech and Superformance at and after purchase.
Keep us posted on how things transpire with your new baby; we are "all ears."
And do enjoy . . . . . .
