My dad built a G15 back in the day... I did spend some time in it but only in a carry cot behind the seats so don't remember it at all.

Remember in the late 80's, I walked past a house and a chap was working on one on his drive so I just walked down and introduced myself (like you do) and had a good chat as I already knew about them....... Never drove one, but would like too.
Ginetta are now based just up the road from me and have a few great cars now :)

I seen a Chevy stepside earlier in the thread but my biggy when I was in my late teens was an F100, must be that I was at an impressionable age 17 ish and saw one burbling away and doing doughnuts in a road junction, I think it was his dads for some reason, but after that, all the ferraris and racing exotica just faded into the mist and I been a commercial junkie ever since 8) but commercial lusting is what brought me back eventually to the dubs. Don`t mind the odd Porsche though, my mate keeps threatening to kill me in his :roll: Now if Porsche did a panel :?: :?: :?: now there`s a thought,, I bet one of them engines might almost just pop into a bus :p

Ozziedog,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, Might fit , I`ll just try these four bolts :lol: ;) :lol:

Those were the days - I bought a flat nosed RS2000 in 1985 and loved driving it, but hated everyone else driving it :lol: - most of the miles were put on by those thieving bar-stewards :evil:
After 12 months of ownership, sold it on for more than I paid for it but still regret that now. Plus, got no bloody pictures of it either :(
 
The only car I really fancy at the moment is a 1970 Dodge Charger. A friend of mine had one in the early 70's. Awesome car!

My son wanted one of these, so I built it for him using 100% spare parts. Finished it today...
