Guys,
Been following with interest all the talk lately on terminology related to NOS, etc. in recent posts.
Veering off track slightly there's a nice article in this months's issue of Octane magazine re a vintage Ford GT40 newly created out of almost entirely original unused parts.
Here's a quote to illustrate -
'how would it be if we went the other way? if a car was so completely original because it had never been used? The specification and hardware are absolutely correct but it cannot have any history, because it has never been driven. Like the record that hasn't ben played, or the vintage bottle of wine that has yet to be enjoyed...' - you get the idea.
Anyway sorry for the digression but there seems to be a common interest in racing cars here @ OTD too and its a lovely story that seems apt just now :-)
I don't know if there's an online version unfortunately but here's the issue...
