This would be a good one to see who the new buyer is and get some details from the current owner.

Isn't it handsome!

The current owner is Phillip, a regular poster in our racing section, and I believe the main reason he's selling it is because next year he'll be racing his MG RV8. I'm sure he'd be delighted to tell you all about the GT.

Arghhh, no suspension shots!

Carl,

Sorry about no susupension photos.

Wish I had a lift in my garage - or better yet (Then I could have better photos) I've long dreamed of a real, old fashion oil change pit like the gas stations used to have when I was a kid - with brick ledges for tools and boxes and lighted up bright, too.  They also needed a stone staircase to get into and out of.

Oh well - the B GT suspension is as advanced as the SCCA will allow - modern shocks, larger bars, some location rods - some adjustability.  But still leaf springs( flat and racing modified) in the rear (the vintage groups won't allow coil-overs), with stock BLM front brakes (using Hawke Blue pads(stock BLM front brakes required both by SCCA and Vintage) with legal SCCA rear discs Wilwood with Hawke Blues).  Handles and brakes well - with all the Prather mods - and is competitive in class.

Hope that helps.

keep them on the track

Do you have a build story for it that we can check out? If not can you do one?
