Just got my 911 back from winter rebuild(!). Have been looking to respray it for couple of years and finally took the plunge.

The car is ex GT race car for Jones brothers and later raced by Henry Firman (911virgin) in the porsche open. I bought it for track days about 3 years ago from Henry. The car has a TPC supercharger on it now and I couldn't resist the GT2 kit when getting the respray.

First track day this year is at brands this week so thought I would take few photos before the stone chips start etc........ More stickers on order!

This is first go on pistonheads posting photos so I hope they work.

Cheers

Andy B









The last photos show it with the old 17" wheels, still waiting on correct spacers to fit all the wheels. (old wheels for sale if anyone interested - 3 sets, various track day tyres)

I think it looks great! Just needs the spacers on as you say.

Quite a house as well. And an F40. I know it's Monday, but I am more depressed than ever now......

Can't help noticing you need a set of side repeaters for the GT2-a-like

Thanks for letting be know but already spoke to craig when I bought the car. No chance of it getting through sound limit. Tried to take it on Goodwood last month but registers 118db!!!!!
Think trip to Germany might be the best idea.........

118db..Is that the same for all F40's??.If not maybe DK Engineering may have an answer.
