GT Chassis

[Gregg Thurman]

I'm looking for any documentation on the GT's chassis that would help me create something close. Exploded views, measurements, specifications, etc will be most helpful.

This chassis will not be used on anything that will be driven on public roads.

Please send your info to gathurm@aol.com , or call me at 509/443-5783.

Many, many thanks

Gregg I saw this post a few days ago and expected another would reply

My suggestion would be to chat with one of the teams that race these gals.

Takes care and all the best with your quest

Gregg-

The Ford engineering team wrote a technical paper on the chassis which is presented in SAE paper 2004-01-1255, "Design and Analysis of the Ford GT Spaceframe".
Note this technical report together with the 10 other new FGT reports and the 7 SAE papers on the earlier Ford GT-40 development are all bound and available as a package in SAE report PT-113.
The reference chassis report may not give you dimensions if that is your request but gives valuable background info on the design development of the chassis. Good starting point, however.

Check with the OEM suppliers; I believe it was Mayflower.
