The pics are at my Dad's place, not mine! I know the garage is pretty big. Its now a '3 bay' size after a recent extension. He practically lives in there now. Its probably bigger than my 3 bed semi in Leeds! I've just bought a more modest sized timber shed / workshop for my garden, for my NSR.

Tom, the GT40 is a replica, not an original, the base kit was from GTD in Poole but heavily modified over the years. My Dad built it from scratch, he's pretty handy with a spanner. Some pics here http://www.flickr.com/photos/72156692@N00/sets/72157606315643380/

Si, yep that is a Cossie you see. One of the early homologation models with the large Turbo and water bag / spray. Cloth Recaro's but no Air-Con.
Its had the Turbo wastegate mod & ECU which really reduced the Turbo lag and pumped power up to around 325 BHP. 18" Oz rims, AP Brakes, Stainless big bore exhaust etc.

Sadly, it hasn't turned a wheel in years. The Cossie may go up for sale to fund the next project. A Honda RC162 250/4 Hailwood Replica (using a CBR250RR engine). Which should eventually look something like this
