Mike, it's 50F, clear and sunny here today, hasn't snowed in a month here in
the Great White North, "come on man".
Mr X, does he have a 37 Curtis straight 8? And a GT40 right side drive? Me
thinks same guy. Just askin?



Indeed, the selfsame guy.  And one of the greatest guys you'd ever hope to
meet.

He has two GT40s by the way--the silver one is a Safir replica of a Mk II,
powered by an aluminum 496-ish stroker 427 FE motor.  The red one is the
last genuine GT40 ever built; it was constructed in the 80s by John Wyer
using leftover parts from the GT40 project.  Ronnie Spain (GT40 guru) has
pronounced it 'original' in every respect--built by the original builder,
using original parts, just built a few years later than the previous ones.
