In case there's any collectors out there...

Forgive me, but how on earth is that anything even remotely like a GT40?

I dont know Randy, your moderating skills could be put to the test if a certain vendor decides to take that post the wrong way!

Beats me.... I've a pal that has made a bunch of money restoring pedal cars like this one.. He had one that was called a Corvette but it looked more like a box of saltines..

Was just passing it along as an oddity and potential collectible..

 

[Neal]

Maybe a Ford Falcon but not a GT...

I do not think Randy will be needing his moderating skills.

A PM has been sent to Ron making our position quite clear.

I thought they were looking for new vendors, not to lose the ones they already have!

Andy, as 'The World's Leading Manufacturer" of GT40 replicas, a longtime sponsor of the forum and a frequent contributor to the technical aspects of the forum, your reputation is well established with all of us. Honestly,what kind of customer would construe any kind of resemblance of a kid's toy to cars of the Tornado's caliber? The name came directly from the E-bay ad. Randy has proven to be quite the gentleman and, I believe, as a moderator tries to treat all of us fairly. I firmly believe there was no malicious intent,that he was simply trying to alert someone with interest in another hobby to a collector's item bargain. Nothing here would change my evaluation of your products. A.J.

I thought Andy's remark was "Tounge in cheek" and not to be taken seriously.
