Trust me, the cars' owner moved in next to my uncle in 1974 (bringing the cars with him, and building a garage for them) and my uncle has seen them up close many times, and coming in and out of the garage on a regular basis ever since.

 

He (The cars' owner) apparently got them when HIS father (a very rich man) died, and was left them (along with a fair sum of money) in the inheritance.

 

 

I'd hate to think what those are worth now, lol. :D

 

Have you got any reason to know they are real, some of the replicas are very good and if you did have enogth money to own and run 3 gt40's you would be living a very exclusive location.

A pic I got of a few of the replicas at a local car show.

From what I've been told (by both my uncle and the owner) all 3 are real. I suppose that's all I have to go on, as I haven't seen the original owners' manuals, and, overall, have spent very little time around them.

 

However, the earliest company of note to make a GT40 replica only started doing so in 1976.

 

Also, why do you have to live outside of immediate civilization to have a nice car? :confused:

Went to the mall this afternoon and there were Jaguar X, XJ, XKR and XF on display. I do like the rear of the XF, looks like an Aston but the front reminds me of a Buick. O.o

 

The XKR was pure sex on wheels. It's so pretty.

I'll tell you how.

 

If you are looking at a C5 Corvette, you can tell from the back-end whether or not it is a Z06. If the rear window has a sharp drop-off to the car, leaving the opening to the truck on the outside of the car, then it is a Z06. If the rear window extends almost to the rear of the vehicle, then it is a regular coupe.

 

Hope that helps ;)

Ok. Firstly I only saw the front of the Corvette C5 and got a picture of it, so will post that up in a bit. When holding my camera etc... it gives me very limited room to twist my head round to look out the back of the car so thats my excuse for that. :p

 

And Davey, I am really hoping to get lessons and my provisional some time this year so it will happen, I just don't know exactly when. ;)
