Ginetta G4
The Ginetta G3 and G4 is a series of sports cars, designed, developed, and built by British manufacturer Ginetta, between 1959 and 1968 and again between 1981 and 1984. The G3 was introduced with a glass fibre body in 1959 to be followed by the very similar G4 in 1961. The G4 used the new Ford 105E engine and had a glass fibre GT-style body along with the suspension updated to coil springs at the front with a Ford live axle at the rear. Whereas the earlier G2 and G3 had been designed for racing, the G4 was usable as an everyday car but still was very competitive in motorsport with numerous successes. The G4 was so successful in kit car racing that it was banned in the mid-1980s, prompting Ginetta to develop its replacement, the very similar G27.
