none of those cars have the clamshell with the fix lights and the radiator vent. Also, what about the off center wheel?
Also, same car, why isn’t the front wheel centered in the wheel well? [ATTACH]
Questions about this car. I’ve never seen this bonnet before, fixed headlight like an LM or a GTE but no opening in the bonnet for the radiators?
If it’s a Simpson built from a road car, why wouldn’t it have a Ferrari vin? How many cars did Simpson build? Dud they build any with their own...
FWIW, this was not a very nice car. Up until a couple of weeks before the auction, it was sporting seats from a 348 (look at the photos, one of...
Sending some wheels I had laying around back to BBS for restoration and just saw this as I was boxing them up. Not sure how I never saw this...
I was just wondering that. Would you mind sharing the width of the gate front end (at its widest point) vs the stock front end? I also asked on...
I didn't realize asking such a mundane question would cause such a ruckus. On to my next question, can anyone explain why the GTE headlight...
As the title suggests, does anyone know where to source the proper green caulking / sealant that's used in the F40 interior from the factory?...
curious, how much wider is the LM front/rear than a stock f40? Also, is the GTE wider than an LM?
Does anyone know where these clear plastic headlight covers can be sourced from? Also, why the variation in headlight orientation? Some cars...
Agreed. I’m not sure how to properly characterize these cars as they are built on genuine f40 chassis, whether from a wrecked car or a factory...
I’m not sure it’s fair to characterize the Simpson cars as “replicas” as they were either rebuilt wrecked cars or built on factory built crash...
Great photos Paul, as I mentioned, I’ve seen Simpson’s work in person and have seen both the cars you are referencing. The car in your photos was...
Interesting observation. I’ve seen both Simpson cars within the last 14 months. They both looked like used race cars, obviously not in the same...
A lot rougher in what regard? Checking the number plate, the car comes back as registered as a Ferrari..
What’s strange to me is that despite the low miles, my camshafts were shot and not repairable hence the new camshafts…
yep!
Yes sir.
