Paul Thompson 'Hooligan'
Admin
Firstly I should say I am posting this on behalf of a friend... Don't worry, all will become clear and I have already spoken with Ron Earp about this and cleared it with him, so no shouts about rules being broken please...
OK - For anyone that remembers the GTD40 Club and it's magazine, you will no doubt recall that Rita and Tony Gordine made an excellent job of editing / producing the club magazine for a number of years and also acted as club events co-ordinators too. Well this advert is being placed on behalf of them. I keep in contact with them both and despite using the computer for the odd bit of googling and emails, they are not exactly 'computer savvy', actually, Tony is a self-confessed computer illiterate and it is up to Rita to deal with any google requests that he has and also deal with the odd email from family and friends. SO, I have set the scene as to why I am placing this advert BUT further than that your any subsequent dealings will be directly with Rita and Tony and I have already paid a membership donation on their behalf to the forum to cover the fact that only members can place such adverts. I hope that satisfies all......
I should add that Tony has built several GTDs and other replica's in the past and does build them to a high standard.
THE DETAILS...
GTD40 - KIT BY GT DEVELOPMENTS OF POOLE DORSET.

TRANSMISSION:
5-SPEED Renault UN1
WHEELS:
Halibrand look-alikes 15" fitted with Goodrich Comp T/A front and rear.
SUSPENSION:
This is fully adjustable for Camber, Caster and Toe and the car is fitted with SPAX adjustable dampers all round. As usual it is via A-Arms and all suspension arms are fully chromed. Rear uprights are the improved Southern GT items supplied by Mick Sollis.

The front units are competition 6-POT units by Wilwood, fitted with road-spec pads and ventilated Wilwood discs. The rear brakes are cross-drilled discs with Ford callipers that include handbrake mechanism.
The car has just been completed and is about to go for IVA inspection and hence is not currently fitted with the Aston styled fuel filler caps. Additionally the steering wheel is padded and the dashboard has an aluminium plate, both to be removed for correct items after IVA.
INTERIOR:
Freshly finished in Magnolia Leather with green piping and stitching. The carpet is also green by Wilton. Fire extinguishers front and rear.
A complete aircon system is included although not currently installed (pipes have been run where required and composite blower/heater is also in place)
The GT40 will be setup for comfortable road use and as at this moment has ZERO miles on the Speed/Odometer.
The pictures show the 40 with the number plate blanked as it is a private plate and not for inclusion so another can be provided for UK purchasers.
