`Wow that 540 chassis looks awesome, I wonder if DRB will ever do a version of their GT40 chassis in Alloy.....

Hi Rotty,
DRB have finished there demonstrator which they used to devolop all the parts required to build the car and is currently at the painters.
The factory car has the window hardware fitted to the doors. The aircon/heater unit is also fitted.
As it uses most of the mechanical parts from a XR8 Falcon it should be a good daily drive.
With all the parts now available from DRB to build the car the construction can be quick. I know of one in Victoria that got delivered in February, he received his VIN number a couple of weeks ago and has been driving it on the road with a permit.
Although the construction of my car is pretty well complete I am just waiting for some final measurements so I can finish cutting the required holes in the doors for the window hardware and the fitting kit for the aircon so I can then send it to the painters.

What area are you from?

Paul,
You should be right for Monday as the weather looks like it will be OK. Just watch out for the potholes around Brisbane as a lot of cars are damaging tyres in them.

Albanycobra,
If you want an AC cobra with aluminium monocoque chassis I heard there is a new factory on the Gold Coast making body chassis units.
Also there could be a next generation Daytona with an aluminium chassis that is not that far away from production.
