Ryan who runs a Ford GT90 fansite sent me a pointer about a Ford GT90 replica project by a guy named Des out of Australia he’s been tracking (check his site for more pictures and hopefully updates in the future).

Because of the GT90’s simple angular design, it’s probably a good choice of a car to clone — and the fact that it’s a rare concept that few people have seen, unlike a car like a Countach were any kid can spot the smallest inaccuracy, will make it much more convincing. Des started with a set of wire-coverd wooden bulkheads over which he’s building up the final form with fiberglass and filler.

Definitely looking forward to seeing where this project goes — thanks to Ryan (and Des) for sharing it online.

I added a forum system today…

I’m working on rebuilding the site (finally), so you may see it break and unbreak over the next few days… When you see the new posts starting to go up, you’ll know it’s working again!

Thanks for your patience.

Edit/Update… Alright, it’s starting to come together and I think I have most of the pages working on the new layout — cut me some slack because this is my first ever custom WordPress layout! I’ll have to sit down some time and clean up all the old posts when I get a chance, as well as fix the rather terminal CSS/layout bugs on IE (please, please, use FireFox)… But it’s getting there.
