Hi guys,

I have started building my own GT40 chassis in the hope of building a completed car over the next few years, so please feel free to chime in on your thoughts and suggestions as they would be well received - from myself at least.
Some photos to start the ball rolling.
I started with a completely finished chassis that I had bought, however I decided to build my own chassis to my design and that's where this project started.
So some starting photo's of the old and then I will post some photo's of the current.

Big thumbs up and thanks for sharing.

Starting point of the project with a pretty average replication of a Gulf body.. Lots of hours later and the body starts to come together.

Custom chassis well under way. Still have to implement the front suspension design, but I want this one to be fully adjustable unlike my RF GT40.. way too hard to adjust the suspension geometry other than toe adjustments.
