The Future with LNT

[the winner]

You are right map in reality the chassis/body through out the history of Ginetta has been a progression of themes even the current production it all stems, in reality from the Walklett's, David Suoll ? who has been manufacturing chassis/body for Ginetta in recent year and to date was an employee of Ginetta from Witham to Scanthorpe until the company went under. He started "Fibre Form" and started making chassis for Ginetta and Dare. For Dare it was continuity of production and for Ginetta I guess the same but all development that was made by (Ginetta) in reality was David and one would have to say that it all stems from the influence and training from the Walklett's wether you like it or not it should be considered with thought.

This implies that "Ginetta" production - including the all important chassis - will be brought in-house. And since, as far as I'm aware, neither Dare nor Fibreform are for sale, will this mean that for the first time in its history the Ginetta name will become detached from the spirit of the marque?

Without the continuity of chassis design excellence can it still claim to be a Ginetta?

Where does the LNT quote come from? I cannot find it on the thread, and it is not on the press release to the GOC or the Team LNT website.

I've seen a reference to that on totalkitcar.com but I'd take it with a pinch of journalistic scepticism.

I read this in a few places a couple of months ago but must admit I've struggled to find a link for it just now. But I did manage it! Do a Google search for "LNT are to build a purpose built factory for Ginetta" (including the quotes) and you should get a www.totalkitcar.com page link. Unfortunately, having just tried this, the page is not responding so use the blue "Cached" lnk from Google to see (almost) the original page. The paragraph I've quoted from is about half way down the page starting "LNT Group based in Sheffield...". Hope this works.
