Quite interesting article, will have to look further into this. Have always wanted to build a replica GT40 but this might change my mind!

The Ultima is a very well-engineered car, unlike some of those pretender kits one can buy. Shit gearchange notwithstanding.

It's actually been used as a development mule a better-known supercar!

I thought Gad was after building one, too?

He's after buying one, he won't be building it, the factory will.

That way it's not a 'budget' supercar
