Moderator, Request to post wrecked GT pics by Neil

Nice pics of the frame

It's his car so the photos are fine. The pictures of the race car frame are most interesting. :thumbsup

Do you have any more photos of the build you could post?

HHGT put the crash photo's up for me because I have not had time to learn how to post pic's.
I have no problem with the crash photo's it just shows that you can always rebuild them into race cars and give the GT a second life
Chip I have lots more I will send them to you and if you want you can put them on here.:cheers

I don't have to many photo's of the adjustable blade bars but they are electricly adjustable on 1 side and manual on the other side.
using jaguar steering colum worm drive motors and switches under the 2 guages to adjust them.they have removable torsion bars to get different rates
we are going testing soon so the GT is in ready to go I will take some photo's of the bars and send them when I pull the GT apart for our next series.

Good job Neil !! :thumbsup

Our friends in New Zealand are master craftsmen and very astute car and motorcycle builders. I have the good fortune to own a Porsche 914-6 GT built in NZ to very high and exacting standards. The aluminum fabrication is absolute art. These crusty islanders have also shown us the way in a few international sailing races if I recall. Where there is a will – there is a way!
