Whose car is this?

The red one on the left.
I'm intrigued by the four headlamps in a Mk1 front (looks similar to the new GT) does it give better light output?

This car belongs to the infamous Ian OReilly (Perrys). The headlamps are standard oval units but have a plate in front with two holes in. This has been mentioned on this site before but a long time ago.

The escapee from Braveheart standing beside the car is none other than Mr GT40 himself, Ronnie Spain.

Brian,

Thanks, I guess that'd be a DEcrease in the light output rather than an INcrease then!

Thease Mods were on the car when I purchased it, and yes the light output was pretty appalling so the cover was removed and dispatched off to our freinds in the USA.
There was a couple of other mods that Mr Snook & Mr Magee decreed had to go "Rear Spoiler, Tow hitch, Furry Dice, etc, etc, towing could have been fun but I couldn't find any vr trailer tyres that were capable of 140mph plus /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Blimey, (just read your profile) that's three GT40 owners that work in the film/TV industry! must be something in the water.

Make that four. I worked in the signshop at Shepperton for seven years, that was when we had a film industry.
