Explore a wonderfully illustrated look at the complete history of the Ginetta wedge-era cars of the 1980s.
In this book, Dean Petley covers the full history of the Ginetta wedge-era cars of the 1980s, from concept cars such as the mid-engined G25, the highly successful G26 kit car to the factory-built and homologated G32. The author examines the styling and specifications of how these Ginetta models measured up to the sports car criteria, making comparisons with the mainly foreign competition, and also how the success of these vehicles led to the successful sale of the Ginetta business in the late 1980s by the four founding Walklett brothers. The book also reveals the relationship with Ford that helped to ensure the company’s success.The author follows the evolution of the shape of the cars and how this was affected by both time and evolving markets and also the significant engineering effort that went into designing the cars. He analyses the social issues, such as the traditional Ginetta buyer growing with the marque, craving for a fun car but one which could transport the family. This was a significant development for Ginetta at the time. He also explores the choices that were made between manufacturing kit cars versus homologated road-going vehicles. The book also discusses how Ginetta survived the financial challenges and competition of being a British owned British built sports car company. The book includes owner interviews and also looks at the modifications and personalisations that Ginetta cars are renowned for.
