Replica built of first Gibson R32 chassis

I thought I'd share this....the shell is non genuine but they found or built a lot of the genuine parts.

Plus, it is by far the best colour scheme of those years, the winfield once was particularly shit

Clinton and I spoke to Alan Heaphy at length last year at the Bathurst 1000 about the Gibson GTR's that he had at the track and the restoration work that his company was involved with.

He has a number of people working for him who were part of Gibson Motorsport when these cars were being built and raced.

What impressed me the most was the amount of first hand knowledge and information that he and his team have about the Gibson GTR's and their meticulous attention to detail in the restoration and maintenance of these cars.

I got the Repco video recommended on YouTube.

If you have the original log book and it didn't have a chassis number quoted, then no money required.  I have "rechassied" a number of race cars, no problem as long as you have the original log book.
