e_racer1999 Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 i think it's a bit of a stretch to call it a GT40 replica.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G.I.jonas Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 i think it's a bit of a stretch to call it a GT40 replica I think its a bit of a stretch to call it even a stretch.Like comparing a unicycle to v-rod. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Careless Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 that looks like he was trying to build a Ferrari 330 TR replica, if anything. The lines are close enough to tell what it is, but far enough so that it warrants a Molotov cocktail tossed into the passenger compartment. props to him for doing all that fibreglass work though!

Chaparral2f Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 Hey, can't you see it? I mean it does have four tires. and they are positioned one at each corner. Just like a gt40 (or an American Flyer wagon) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m4xwellmurd3r Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 http://phoenix.craigslist.org/car/409347181.html I think that ones closer to a gt40, but wrong powerplant XP (corvair flat 6) anyways, that guy said it has a 65-74 pan, that makes me laugh. it's an IRS pan, so it has to be 69+ well, unless he hack apart an irs and swingaxle pan.....but 68 was the last swingaxle.

Dave Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 I think that is a Fiberfab Aztec kit. http://www.fiberfab.us/history.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
e_racer1999 Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 like what this pic resembles http://www.fiberfab.us/etphoto.jpg ^pic doesn't show up well embedded also, the aztec appears to be a fastback (and an actually attractive one), whereas the car in question has a 'pantera' style rear window.

m4xwellmurd3r Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 actually the aztec isn't a fastback. the Jamaican was the fastback Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duke Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 As Dave suggested, it is an Aztec or an Aztecd GT. The Design was GT40 "inspired." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSM Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 I hope he's a better car builder, than he is at English. LOL! I thought the same exact thing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
