I'm exhausted after a long day, so will post full spec later, but it's a ford 2.5 duratec v6 with a cosworth t5 gearbox, which proves it can be used in-line. Goes like stink

Avo's all round.

Wash and a polish tomorrow and then will post some better pics.

That looks great! I saw a few Ginettas at Oulton recently and the finish was excellent. They went really well with 1.8 zetecs, so I can imagine how good yours will be

Thanks for the comments chaps, i like it. I had a G20 previously with a zetec, but this is something else. Credit must go to the previous owner who built it, despite ginetta not supplying it for road use.

The car was used to homologate the GT cup car raced for the last 3 years in british GT before the G50 came along. Will be getting out to some shows to meet some of you and chew the fat.

Doors? They are smaller than they look!
It's not too difficult actually, well it's a case of grabbing hold of the roll cage and heading in both feet first.

Hi I hope you do not have a son aged 14-16. He will be wanting to get it converted to junior Ginetta spec and join the young lunatics on the track.

Looks good and is a bit more practical than a seven type ( assuming you do not have a bad back )

Cheers Matt
