Hi Guys,

Been looking at a GT-40 replica for some time now; from my research ERA, CAV and SPF were the top tier vendors. I too like the smooth lines of the Mark I. I have orderd an SPF with Gurney bubbles on both sides to be delivered in Gulf Livery, replicating Number 6 of LeMans fame.

SPF will build the car in both Mark I and Mark II formats, I have manufacturing slot #41....missed number 40 by one number... and expect the roller in the September timeframe. SPF has entered into a licensing realtionship with the holder of the GT40 trademark and their cars will be called GT40's.

I'm installing a stroked Aluminum 351 with Webers behind /beside the ZF 5- speed transaxle.

Some SPF GT40 pics in my gallery. My second choice would have been the CAV, I drove one and loved the feel of the car.

Tony R.
