My WEB site is now up
I have finally managed to put together a WEB site for my project. The URL is:
http://members.rogers.com/projectlmp
Its a bit basic at the moment but I will be adding a lot more info over the coming months.

Great stuff
As well as being technically good and interesting I liked the layout, very clear and readable...too many sites have pale letters on dark
backgrounds...harder to read IMO...
Loved the coment about Carroll Smith...couldn't agree more...he knows his stuff, and he knows he does
Are you sure that's not my book collection you have reveiwed?
Can I add your link to mine?
Good luck...

Exvcellent!
I am a (semi) professional web designer, and your site is great!
I must follow this build closely as I live in Calgary so I can't get an ultima either!

Looks good mate!
I'd use thicker balsa for the chassis though!
On a serious note, I was going to use that wheel PCD link until I found a few errors, the one I recall was that it says that Granadas are 4 stud -
um..no.
I'd love a car in the Le mans style, I'll be watching very carefully!
Well done
Cheers
Chris
Note to all: I really don't know when to leave well alone. I tried to get clever with the mods, then when they gave me a lifeline to see the
error of my ways, I tried to incite more trouble via u2u. So now I'm banned, never to return again. They should have done it years ago!

Thanks everyone for the complements.
Alan: I'd be happy for you to add a link to my site seeing as I have one to yours ;)
Matt: I know a couple of people with Ultima's in Ontario but you cannot legally get one into Canada. Mine was turned back to the UK by customs :(
chrisg: Thanks for the tip, I will add a note to warn people.

Well done LMP, nice site. 
I especially like the dark font on the light background ....unlike most of my site!
I've already attached it to my Favourites. 
Cheers, Rorty.

Hey LMP,
Sounds like your headed the same direction as me and Bart. Getting very interesting, 3 people design these types of cars, it will be very interesting
to see what we end up with:-)
You with a current Le Mans car,
Me with a LM/GTP inspired car
and Bart with a Mazda 787B replica (won LM in 1991) :-)
Like your site but I've seen the design somewhere else before, can't quite place it.:-)
I like the balsa model btw, I was planning on soldering one together but this seems much easier to do and it is easier to find the wood in the right
sizes....

Depends on the year of "Granada" Yes we all know that 5 stud is norm, - but if you look closely at the late & facelifted granada's laterly called
the "Scorpio" (you know, the one with the wide chrome lips for a grill) they are down to 4 stud. And just to confuse the issue Mondeo's have gone
up to 5 stud?!?.
Enjoy
Nice looking site.
