Please, I am waiting!

Please, I am waiting!

So is my checkbook.   

I do want to do something with it though, as I love the bike.  It's just too long of a reach for my back to handle.  taking all the parts off/out and putting them onto a 749/999 though...

Is this the thread where I sign up for the Gulf Oil Cafe Fighter demo ride?   

no...that is currently on Ebay...

Thanks' for the compliment!
I knew from the start that the bike needed to be Gulf Oil colors.  I own a Gulf Oil GT40 and always thought that the colors would look great on one of my custom bikes.  The difficult choices were:1 Color of the frame and 2 if the bike was going to have a fairing.  I am glad that I went with the Aluminum silver frame and small fairing, they just complete the whole package perfectly.

My son has been buying and selling a bunch of classic cars of late to Howden Classics in Zebulon and I've been down there twice in the last month. http://www.howdenclassics.com/new/about.php Next time he needs me for a run, I may ask to drop in if we have the time and you're available. Would like to see your set-up.

Was that your Gulf GT-40 in the pits at Heacock Classic last year at VIR http://www.virnow.com/event/guid-58 or perhaps one of your client's? Think I have a snap somewhere.

Regards!

Yes, it was my car.

Please come and have a coffee with me when you are down my side of the woods.

So nice!
What do you run in it?
Please say Windsor 408 stroker 













Please do not say SBC

My demonstrator has a 400hp 302 CI motor with 4 twin choke carbs (8 open stacks)
We will never put a SBC in a GT40 replica.

Also have a 358 CI 560 hp FI car in the shop at the moment.  Great fun!!!!!!

Found it. Not great art..., but in situ.  Thanks for the offer. I'm a caffeine addict.

We will never put a SBC in a GT40 replica.
