Hello everyone
Just joined this forum after spending many, many days looking at the Unique website. I love the look of the 289 FIA car and hope to start a build later this year. First I have to sell my current project - an RCR GT40 Mk1

Prior to the GT40, I built a very nice FFR Roadster with a 503 BBF, 5-spd trans and Currie 9" rear. But I really want to build the Unique 289FIA

Cheers
Bill

Welcome Bill

That's a fine looking GT40 build.
Smallblock with Inglese/Weber induction? ZF Tranny?

Nice looking 40, we built 2 GTD40s years ago so I know how much labor is involved.

Great to see you over here, Bill. Based on the craftsmanship you've displayed on your previous projects, I'm sure the 289FIA will turn out splendid.

Wow, nice GT40 car[thumb]! Welcome to the site. Lots to enjoy on your visits. The Weavers make a great product.
