GT40 Chassis Pics
 
Hoping that you guys in the GT40 world can help...

I am looking for pictures of GT40s with no bodies on them. Just need pics of companies that currently still make cars. I am planning out the future build of a car, and I would like to use a GT40 chassis/drivetrain setup, but I need to see some layout pics first. Thanks!

It would depend on what style you would want to build. The originals were
built around a sheet steel monocoque "tub" with short tubing subframes
to hold the drivetrain and suspension. Some replica builders are using the
original style monocoque construction with either steel or aluminum tubs,
but others are building complete tube chassis GT's that are essentialy "tubless."

No, looking to build something else, that I feel a GT-40 chassis design and layout will work well for.

Sounds interesting. Care to elaborate on that Sal?
