Cheney’s GTM unveiling

Customer builds the ultimate GTM for SEMA show

 

New England’s favorite FFROG, Gary Cheney, has built one of every model that we have produced, starting out with a Mk1 Roadster in 1997.  Naturally, when we launched the new GTM, Gary couldn’t wait to get his hands on one of these new mid-engine machines.

 

Recently we unveiled Gary’s new ride, prior to loading it up for the SEMA show, which is currently ongoing.  Since everyone cannot get into the show, we thought that we would provide everyone with a glimpse of some of the hardware we will have on display.
 

 

The photos alone simply cannot do this car justice and the jaw-dropping looks on the visitors’ faces at the unveiling don’t scratch the surface of the magnitude of this custom ride.

 

Just a few of the custom modifications that Gary has made include:

▪ Paddle shifters

▪ Custom-fabricated cold air intake via Roof  

  Scoop and Induction System

▪ Re-covered dash panels with embroidery

▪ Custom center console assembly

▪ In-dash AM/FM stereo with CD/DVD/TV and MP3 player

▪ Four 5.1/2” speakers, four tweeters and a subwoofer

▪ Momo racing steering wheel

▪ AIM data acquisition gauge cluster

▪ Digital fuel gauge

▪ Schroth seat harnesses

▪ Re-upholstered seats to include carbon fiber-look material

▪ Reverse camera

▪ Billet rear grill

▪ Tailpipes reengineered for 2- into 4-port exhaust

▪ Carbon Fiber headlight buckets

▪ Push button momentary start button

▪ Lemans-style front fender vents

▪ IForge custom billet wheels

Wilwood brakes

▪ Lizard Skin thermal insulation throughout

▪ APR 300 rear wing with custom billet chassis mounts

 (including rear wing sub-frame)

▪ Single inlet fuel tanks

▪ Carbon fiber front air-splitter

▪ IForge wheels

▪ Pirelli tires
 
 

A few other customers also drove their rides down for the unveiling, including Craig Lindsey in his Mk2 and Jack Sargent in his silver GTM.
