This firm builds one of the best GT40 replica and operates a factory in South Africa.

The car we offer is a very high quality replica of the Le Mans winning car. It has been built on highest standards and painted with the Gulf color scheme. The owner, a car collector who owns several major italian cars, and several american cars, has chosen to fit a 5,7 L V8 Chevrolet engine instead of a Ford, finding the Chevy block more useable at low rpm. It is equipped with a Holley carburettor, and racing intake, and a sport headers. The 5 speed gearbox comes from Renault and is very easy to maintain, cope with the torque of the engine without any problem and is easy and cheap to replace if needed. The brakes are from AP Racing with twin brake balance, and the racing suspensions are adjustable. Last but not least, the car stands on uniball joints.
This is a very nice replica, with correct interior and Stewart Warner gauges. It is working like a dream, quite easy to drive, but can also be a real beast on track. It is in stunning condition, and we have just noted few stone chips on the front.
A little story about this car that shows the quality of the work done on it : the owner attended the Mans Classic event recently. All doors were opened to the car, and it finally reached the track, and stopped in front of the pit stop. A man came to fil the car with gas. It's only when an official race organiser realized that it was a replica, that the car was taken to the right place, out of the track.
