1st of March marks autumn in Australia. No better time to build a car to keep busy through the bleak winter months.

This is a Gardner Douglas Mk4. Engine is a GM LS3 6.2L V8 & 500HP spinning through a Tremec 6 speed manual box.

Body & chassis (10-17mm FE)

Chassis with roll bars

body

Tremec 6 speed

LS3 6.2L V8 500HP

The chains are for lifting the engine around until installed in the chassis.

This machine will outperform a Ferrari or Porsche for a lot less money.

Just needs a few man hours of labour to complete.

Roll on spring.......

images are just snaps for now, accurate detailed images will be done later.

Best regards

Too far from a shore.

Looks like that will keep you busy during the long winter evenings, in between barbies .

Have fun with it and we'll look forward to some progress reports.
