They\'re getting younger!!
I was working on the 40 today when I heard this young voice, "WOW"!! I looked up & saw this young lad sitting astride his bike. "scuse me mate" he said, "what's that car. "It's a replica GT40" I replied. "Yeah" he said "I thought it was, shame it ain't a real one"
Now, this lad couldn't have been more than 12 years old but he really did know his stuff. He asked if it was a GTD or Tornado, his enthusiasm was extraordinary.
I asked him if he wanted a closer look, well that just blew his mind. He sat inside, pressed all the pedals, switches & buttons. Just by the look on his face I knew this had made his day.
It just goes to show that it isn,t all us old gits who love the flowing body lines of the GT40!!!!
He said he's coming back with his mates tomorrow.
