Just got my copy of Total Kit Car July/Aug issue.

Martyn Jones article features SEVEN pages on the Dimmack Ginetta G12 (with some Ginetta history inbetween)- nice pics too.

As an added bonus for Ginetta enthusiasts there are 5 pages on the Peter Lathrop's project G27 after he bought the rights (less bonnet and Ginetta name) from M Phaff and called his new recreation the GKD (using his children's initials) Evolution.
In my eyes Peter's done a excellent update job and the car regularly gets publicity.

Good article.
Pity there were no costs. All that specialist work is not cheap.
Would love to know the build costs.
Unless of course someone knows? (roughly)

I think it cost mid 30 grand in total, must be worth double that.

Isn't that about the cost of a Dare G12?
I think I was quoted about 32K.

Same parts and same work to achieve the end result in both cases.

The Viper Green car looks really nice and has the Twin Cam etc.to boot.
