Impresive! Top quality build! It is great to see these beign built. More detail pictures and Build spec please. I think this was the 90's John Maher chassis?:cup1:

Where did the carbon fiber bumpers and side vents come from? They look nice. Love the color combo.
|
Thatīs what GL is supposed to look like! Fantastic! Itīs even got the wheels Iīve always wanted...lucky you!
|
Very nice car... What about drivetrain combo specs ?
|
Looks tough ... great job !

Thanks for the comments. The engine will be a autocraft fuel injected 2332 turbo. Heads are superflows with a water jacket (so I can up the boost on the street). A huge holset turbo sitting behind me where the back seat used to be. Should be good for a whole lump of hp. Gearbox is a Porsche 915 (just had a Quaife lsd fitted so that I can steer the car on the back wheels)...ha ha.
Wheels are cargraphics 8.5 x 18 front 225/30s and 10 x 18s rear 265/35s. Wings are 4cm oversize Kerchers fronts and 6cm Remmele carbons on the rear. Bumpers and running boards are both widened Remmele items that meet the arches perfect (although we had to cut and shut the rear wings to get the perfect fit). All the body prep and fitting together was done by myself and it took forever but my labour's cheap. The paint inside and underneath is as good as on top. The paint is absolutly stunning. It flips about in certain lights. Thanks to Dan Simpson and the lads for the lift of the body onto the chassis. |

Those holes are most likely done with a "Punch and Flare Tool".

That is a stunning car so far and I can't wait to see it finished. I'd love to give it a good flogging and see what it's made of :D
