Good afternoon to all.
And here it is the start of the build diary for my son and I's new CK!!!
The challenge is to build this during the school summer holidays this year...note 'this year'...nothing like making it easy for one self.
Thank you to the committee for letting me go ahead with my front suspension design, a real back of a cornflakes packet type drawing,
that should at least look something like the original, if you squint at bit, whilst looking into a sandstorm.
Photos attached to show just how easy a build this should be, or put another way...how the hell did this ever seem like a good idea
Some selected quotes about the original car that make it such an attractive project...
'the ability to create a car that was wonderful in some respects, but sadly crass in others'
'the E-type might have been a formidable machine. But as he concedes: “In some ways the car is a really lovely thing, and in other ways they just got it so wrong.”'
And finally... 'Racing GP1 is a real struggle because you never know what’s going to go wrong next!'
So with a hay hoo pip and dandy chaps, what could possibly go wrong
