The Ginetta G2 was produced as a kit car for enthusiasts and consisted of a tubular frame chassis to take Ford components and an aluminium body. It was the first car built after the company was founded in 1958, a cycle fendered special using Ford 10 horsepower mechanicals, built by the four Walklett brothers in Woodbridge, Suffolk. It came after the very first car of 1957, later known as the G1, which was based on a pre war Wolseley Hornet six. The G2 and the glass fibre G3 that followed it in 1959 were designed for racing, unlike the G4, which could also be used as an everyday car. About 100 G2 cars were produced.
