Ginetta G7

Automobiles

The Ginetta G7 is one of the numbered Ginetta projects of the 1960s that never reached series production. The Ginetta Owners Club model index lists it as a sports racer of G4 type with a rear mounted transaxle and independent rear suspension, and records it as a prototype only. The club timeline, however, notes under September 1963 that a DKW engined G7 project was abandoned, so the two accounts do not agree on whether the G7 name belonged to a DKW project of 1963 or to a later rear transaxle design, and the Ginetta Owners Club of Switzerland dates its entry 1967. No engine, price or production figure is recorded for it, and it should not be confused with the G4 based road cars that were built in numbers.
