Beautiful can and it's even better you can enjoy it with your kids. Do you think it's safe having passengers in the rear seats given the proximity of the roll bar? I don't have an opinion either way and just wanted your thoughts. I love the dual purpose nature of the car, including the roll bar. Thanks.

One more question, did they have the option for folding seats? I am doing the interior of my 964 (maybe I already said this) and I really love the look of the Recaro Pole Position seats but have 2 small children as well. They don't go back there often, but it will happen from time to time.

superquant,

Congratulations on finally getting your Singer completed, I would have done it exactly the same.

Superquant, congratulations on the car. Looks amazing as expected. I'm currently having a GT40 replica built in Connecticut, but the build process is quite long, but well worth it in the end as with the Singer. Also, are those Clopay garage doors? If so, I have the same.

Incredible exterior color choice. Love the interior accent color.

We may be the only two people to have a Singer and a FGT? If you know of anyone else that would be cool to know.

Enjoy.

Nicely done SQ. The ultimate analog 911. Look forward to seeing it in the flesh.

Late to this thread but thanks to Superquant for sharing. What a fantastic car! it is just amazing to me how well these are executed. I would not choose many of the exterior colors or combinations if they were options presented to me, yet every one looks absolutely perfect, this example maybe my favorite. Plus the engine, mechanicals, and sound....

That is breathtaking to look at. The combination of race and luxury is pefectly balanced. It truly is amazing how Singer takes all of the weak points of the original car and adresses them.

Very nice color choices. Would love to see more showing all the unique details.

Enjoy in good health

I don't know anyone with that specific combo but Horacio Pagani has a FGT and a CGT in his personal collection, so that is somewhat related!
