Dunno about loot,think exchange & marts gone?

I\'ll let u into an unknown secret,after years of intensive research it\'s been found having a moonroof on a 1st gen leads to the fabric disintegration on the seats,due to sun damage,help yourself & sell it to me!

I\'ve always fancied an Elford turbo, love the look with the spoilers (which is unusual for me as I don\'t normally like bodykits on cars), plus they go well don\'t they.
Your car looks gorgeous in those pictures Dibs, a real credit to you keeping it that nice ( and getting it back on the road despite a few setbacks)
Gotta ditch that aerial though!

I\'d have to respray it obviously!!
Seriously, my views on green cars are well known but I\'ve seen quite a few pictures of that particular car and I do think the colour suits the bodykit, it shows off it\'s clean lines ( helped too by the fact that the car is a minter and looked after.

Having said all that, as much as I\'d love an Elford, I couldn\'t live with a green car.
Need an Elford ebay project car to transfer all the bits off onto my black car!

How\'s ur GT40 replica going?

Dibs....just noticed youve got a moonroof,did it come with the car decades ago?
ta stu..

GT40 replica going slowly at present, just in process of arranging for a company to finish it off and get it through IVA. I hope to have on the road for shakedown by end of August and then get completed over winter for full use from next year.

I was thinking of selling the FB to make some more garage space but after the great run up to Brooklands yesterday Sally said I need to keep it as it is still fun to go out in.

A7RXY · April 26, 2010, 08:30:35 PM

Hi Dave just think of it this way, you will be able to get in and out of the FB a lot longer than the GT40 .................

But it does look very nice.

myatt1972 · April 26, 2010, 08:37:14 PM

Wow that looks like a serious bit of kit, very nice.
