If AC were building a contemporary 3000 ME?

Looking at the new Ginetta G60 announced this week, the 3000ME immediately came to mind - a small mid engined sportscar with a Ford V6 - this time the 3.7 Litre Ford Mustang Cyclone V6 - composite body & no anti-lock brakes.

   The parallels don't end there. Both cars were developed from previous designs - the 3000ME from the Diablo and the G60 from the Farbio.

Interesting idea, I would have said the Ginetta was following more TVR and Nobel of a few years ago.

I could be wrong, but if they were published on the web they become public domain.

They are links to the original picture not copies. If I see that websites state 'all rights reserved' however, I would avoid adding links.
   
   However, to be on the safe side, I've changed the image links to website links.
