Mike,
I am glad that you are going to put out what looks like a great product and there is certainly a market for the kit as you describe it. Having a replica GT40 or T70 is like a college education. If a person really wants it, they should be able to get it if they are willing to work for it without having "big money" stand in the way as a deal killer .
I would avoid the use of the name Lola, as I have heard some grumblings recently. Just a friendly hint. I can't wait to see more cars out there like the ones you are planning. I wish you luck and am confident in your success.
I have a few "bodies laying around", mostly spoken for. I store the cars with the bodies off as the beauty of them is more than skin deep.
CSX nut,
It is neat that you have a duplicate of the '66 Lemans winner. I have some funny stories from going to the races a few times with that car which is owned by George Stauffer. Back during the 30th reunion for GT40's at Road America, there was an empty spot on the grid (pole position) because the guy dating Stauffer's daughter knocked the table over that had the headers, rockers, nuts and bolts and it scattered in the tall grass. It delayed putting the car together for the race by just enough that we missed it.
I have some in-car video I took from that car that weekend.
Here is a picture of the car now. Can you post a picture of yours for comparison ? That would be neat.
Best,
Johan
