    no worries on the delay... 1000 kg is pretty darn light for a street GTB. isnt that close to what the michelotto gr4 weighed with highly modified lightweight chassis. so are the 964 C2 brembos are a direct bolt on without adapters and using the standard 308 master cylinder bore size?

    that one great looking car you have... l love the coffin spokes too but its hard to find tires the correct size that is tall enough in 15's. people typically run michelin TB tarmacs on them. would you get the replica's or the last run of the tecno/campys? seems like the replicas only come in 8 and 12's whiles the real ones came 8,9,10 and 12's. they are asking astronomical prices now for the real ones. 10x15 would be nice fit on a gtb without adding fender flares. Im my opinion 308’s look ridiculous with anything larger than 16 in wheels.

    cheers

    Those wheels look great! What did you have to do to mount them?

    Yes. It says "Particular White Painting" on the build sheets for the belt line, louvers, and the roof is covered in white leather.

    Wow, that is different. Does it say how much it cost the guy to get all that done?

    It does. I'll check when home and post tomorrow. I believe the wheels were $1,500 and the white painting of the louvers and belt line was $850.

    The car was described as experimental from the factory.

    And it grows on me more every day. To me, the styling is much more refined than that of a GTB/GTS. In comparison, the GTB/GTS is over the top, almost stereotypical, with that huge double swoop of the hip line. Come on, that's how my 6 year old son draws a sports car, and then adds machine guns and a rocket booster! The GT4 on the other hand is held back. And despite what many say, other than the door sills, there isn't a single straight line in sight...

    Just compare the air intakes of the GTB/GTS to that one of a GT4. Pure genius of the part of Bertone...

    And thus I vote for a dark blue early Euro GT4...




    Uh...you realize, of course, that you are in the VAST minority, right?
