    Big THANK YOU to Chris (@macmaninfi) for showing us details of the modified ‪@Superformancecars‬ build. "I like that [Speedhut] had a GT40 set that had all the right sizes and number of gauges... I'm super happy with how all that stuff came out." - Chris A.

    Beautiful car! I've watched several GT40 kit builds, and no matter where the kit comes from, there are huge problems. There are always missing parts, wrong parts, missing holes, mislocated holes, horrible panel alignment, horrible fit of recommended engine and transmission, etc etc. If someone like you would manufacture kits and get a good reputation, you could make a lot of people happy.
