Certainly wouldn't be confused with the real thing, but it does look pretty nice. These replicas always have a huge gap above the rear wheels.

Lowering it about 2" would help a bunch.

Swapping to a V8...

The GT40 was only 40 inches high. I wonder how high this rebody is?

Looks nice ftom the few pics, other than the fender gap behind the rear wheels.

It is higher than 40" as it is based on the Fiero roof line, but when lowered they are still quite short



He lowered that car by raising the strut and spring perch on the strut towers, adding some mini-tub work for tire clearance, and notching the lower frame rail to clear the tie rod. He also notched the strut tower for the N* install.
