Welcome Nick is that the one in Ballarat ? I know of a few people that have gone the "venom " way ---you would need to talk to the manufacturer about whats available to complete the car - particularly suspension items . :- www.venommotorsport.com.au/gt40.html

If you're thinking GT40's, the only local kits available are from The New Roaring Forties in Melbourne. DRB are selling parts and offering support, but have ceased making kits. RCR Australia has ceased, and Craig White (was local agent) appears to be moving into various things.
You can import, but then don't have local support. And beware if you want road registration, our ADR's and regulations are very strict.

Nick, some good advice here so far.
Building a GT40 replica is a substantial investment in time and money. My ony advice is to look at the total complexity, cost and what the finished product will be like from all manufacturers. If possible, visit each manufacturer in person, talk to owners. Make sure you do plenty of research.
Good luck with it.

Thats the spirit Clive , there would be numerous members on this forum that scratch/bought built outside the known or usual form of obtaining a gt40 replica and would definately feel a little bit isolated , but thanks to guys like yourself and other members that are more than willing to help with the build progress , it's an amazing forum
Well, 'tis the season... http://www.gt40s.com/forum/vendor-manufacturer-announcements/35284-tornado-gts-posts.html#post347510
Nick, I'm sure there would be a number of part built cars that you could pick up from jaded builders. I'd still recommend picking a manufacturer first, then looking for an unfinished example of that marque.
Do you want an RF with an LS2 and sequential 6 speed? lol
Nick, if your seriously thinking of an aussie part build kit, I would suggest you have a look thru the build threads, particularly some of the older ones, work out which are in aussie--check the country flag on the builders posts. You should be able to get the drift so to speak as to whether construction has stalled, then send the builder a PM or Email... be polite, in some cases you might be asking where the builder is in a situation he would prefer not to be in, but.. nothing ventured/nothing gained. I would guess that there are more part finished projects than completed ones, just that most folk keep on hopeing they will get the time or $$ to finish...you never know..
Nah, that's ok, I'm keeping it.
That aside, mine is not really something you could put on the road easily either.
