In a daring move that would make even the most seasoned car enthusiast's heart skip a beat, StanceWorks has taken on the monumental task of constructing a Ferrari F40 tube chassis race car. This ambitious project involved significant sacrifices, including parting ways with beloved vehicles to fund the acquisition of authentic F40 body parts. Through a stroke of pure luck, the team managed to secure New Old Stock panels, unveiling a front end and a rear underbody that hint at the awe-inspiring transformation to come.

With meticulous planning and unwavering determination, StanceWorks delves into the intricate process of building a tube chassis akin to Nigel Petri's legendary Toyota hux. This construction method promises a lightweight, rigid, and safe foundation for the F40 project, setting the stage for a truly exceptional creation. Addressing concerns about potential legal ramifications from Ferrari, the team remains resolute in their vision to craft a street-driven machine that embodies the raw essence of a race car, steering clear of conventional comforts in favor of a pure, unadulterated driving experience.

As the saga unfolds, the F40 project emerges as a testament to innovation and audacity, pushing the boundaries of what is thought possible in the realm of automotive customization. StanceWorks' unwavering commitment to excellence shines through as they navigate the complexities of melding cutting-edge technology with the timeless allure of the iconic Ferrari F40. With each meticulously planned step, the team propels towards a future where the roar of the F40's engine will echo not just on the track, but on the open road, embodying the spirit of automotive ingenuity in its purest form.
