    selling 355 body panels,... inquiring about f40 panels... not exactly hard to put 1+1 together to get 40.

    I dont understand this. Is it that he wants to make a counterfit f40? Who would be fooled by one built on a 355 anyway? Please explain. Thanks

    Building the rear plexiglass is relatively simple and can be done inexpensively, I was a project manager in 1993 at a manufacturer who actually built the rear plexiglass Louvered windows for a replicar car manufacturer. PM me your email address and I can send you a detailed explanation and items needed to build and replicate several copies. Once tooled up you can build a handful rear windows in a week with the correct vented louvers

    Paul - what a bizarre post, to be honest. NOBODY cares that you had a different account, but the Terms of Service are clear - multiple accounts are not permitted, no matter how you wanted to use them.

    Why not just use your first (and only legit) account name to post a build thread? I don't see why that is even an issue - most of us here would LOVE to see your progress, I think it's a great idea and would also really appreciate your keeping us updated - yes, even as Paul S. ...

    Paul?... Paul?...

    Seriously,... if your skin is so thin that you can't discuss the project when 90% of the comments are positive... are you sure an F40 tribute is for you?

    Based on your reaction here,... I'm having a hard time believing you would be honest about your car when asked by a curious person on the street.

    I find it hard to believe that it is just not a figment of Paul's imagination?

    Interesting point. I did find it surprising when he said he hadn't taken any pictures.

    Not much of a secret when you announce it in the opening sentence!
