Scott:
Did she get a good home? I'll bet you two will cross paths again in the future.
Can't wait to see the next build.
Cheers
Phil
 
Has almost two years gone by already?

:D

I do miss her, but will post pics of her "replacement" soon.

Here is a shot of 875 at the entrance to the GM proving grounds where she goes to work on nice days!

Happy New Year to all!

I've been wanting to ask, why no build log Scott?

Is it the carbon mono version you're talking about?

Happy and Prosperous New Year mate... :)

The carbon chassis build log will follow soon Keith.

I have been blessed with one in unbonded form and have been fabricating/assembling/bonding as time allows. On and off now for about 12 months.

It really is a privilege to be the only Bloke on Earth (outside of the Kidderminster works) that Andy feels confident in building one of his works of art from scratch.

It's been a tough year for me health wise and the day job has been crazy, the aircraft have been averaging almost 700 hrs a year!

Cheers,
Scott

'Blessed'. I love it.

Well, more power to your elbow sir. Sorry to hear of your ill health mate.

Best for 2015, can't wait to see the finished article...
 
875 at @ Cars & Coffee this morning somewhere in Birmingham Mi. I was told she got all the attention:heart:

Hello Scott,
very nice car.
i have ordered a Tornado Kit and i will get it in May 2018. Cn you tell the size from your front and rear wheels. I think you have 15" wheels, but which is the offset?
Thanks
Frank
 
Thanks Mike. Yes, I had to re-size the picture to this website's parameters in order to upload it. And I agree WRT the new FGT. In fact, the owner of 875 mentioned that out of the three examples present, it drew the most attention.
 
Lets face it lads there are few cars that can match the looks of the GT 40. It stands alone in any company. This pic, even "smashed" proves that point. A timeless design.
 
My CF tub outside at ride height. Roll bar and sponson covers are next.
