1889 no longer black!!!

Another pic

And another one

Nice! How about some pics of the engine bay?

Who did you order your wheels from and what sizes/offsets? And did they require any spacers to get them positioned so well within the wheel wells?

Would love to know more about your GT40 as well. Superformance, CAV, ERA, other? More pics. Beautiful!

I'm not sure wich car is the nicest.. I seriously love that GT 40. Color and wheels make it so much more "right" than most other out there, and that Panteras color, looks so much as the paint going on to mine when time permits. You have a tase quite like mine

The wheels are from Team III in Cali. They make them to order so they do not require any spacers. They will make any B/S that you want. These are 17X11 rear (6.5" B/S) and 17X8 front.( i don't remember the B/S but I can look it up if you need me to)

The GT40 is from RCR (Race Car Replicas) out of Detroit. It has an aluminum Monocoque chassis,billet suspension,bodywork molded directly from an original MK1 GT40,AP brakes and a dry-sump SVO engine with Yates heads/intake. 2300# and nealry 700fwhp.
It's quite a ride!

Looks AMAZING Ron!

WOW Ron !
The Pantera looks awsome. Post more pics. And more of the GT.
Jeff

Both look Awesome!!

Ron, those are fabulous. GREAT taste in cars, especially since it matches mine. The blue is superb. Is the Ghibli yours as well? I had a Merak SS in D'oro Longchamps (I think that's the correct color name anyway) and always liked that color. You don't see it much.

I believe I've heard your name from Pat Mical who did work on both our cars at one point.

I'm in agreement with my voyeur friends here - MORE PICS of the engine bay, etc.

Agreed, both are beautiful cars all around. That gt40 is stunning.

Looks great Ron!

And for those of you who are craving more photos of Ron's GT40, here are some shots I took last year at POCONO.

Rear (what most people get to see).

...and my favorite. Check out the background.

Here's a pic of both Ron's GT40 and his Pantera (his friend was driving the Pantera) taken from my vantage point behind the wheel of 3382

Here's a pic of Ron's GT40 parked next to my car 3382

Here's Ron's Pantera (pre-blue)...

Oh, here's another of the GT40...

Sweet, huh?

And now, some more of the Pantera please.

Car looks great Ron. Love those wheels!

Damn Bill!! Thanks for posting those! I really don't have many pictures of the '40 with the 17" wheels/Street tires.
Thanks for the comments everyone. I will try to post some new pictures of the Pantera very soon. I now have the mirrors and airdam installed.
Thanks for all of the great comments.

Ron

I love the blue!! Nice job Ron.
