Congratulations on this what a journey but what a top quality finish youve done. Enjoy the smile of knowing you built it. Enjoyed the little video.

That’s very close.. I believe they are welsh registrations?

The car was weighed for IVA and came in at 975kg but prob a bit heavier now as there was no rear glass fitted and it’s now painted. Circa a tonne would not be too far of the mark I recon.

I’d love to see a picture of the Ginetta?

Thanks thought it could be around 1000kg, thats very decent

My g16 is a Dare/Ginetta continuation car , only 12 were made in the 60s. Its the only one to have a full roof, others were open cars.
585kg and 255 hp from cosworth duratec.
