Nice car...

Is that yours? :drool

Hey Opt come see me. If im not in the store go straight back up to the shop.

 

[Bubba_Zenetti]

that shop looks like it caters to those with big $$$

so ford is actually producing those gt40s. pretty sweet.

 

[Drinky-Crow]

Don't think they're actually called the 'GT-40' though, I think Carroll Shelby or someone has the rights to that name, now.

The actual Ford designation is the Ford GT.

 

[Geekon2wheels]

Nice, I drive by all the time

 

[Reeff]

[skinny_punk]

The roofline was 40 inches tall.

One of the drivers (Gurney?) was too tall, so they added a slight bulge to the top of the driver's door in order to clear his helmet.

My all-time favorite best-looking most awesomest race car ever.

I had a 1:12 scale slot-car set when I was like 5 or 6, me and my big brother spent hours and hours playing it. I had a grey GT-40 in the Gulf colors just like that pic posted above, and he had a red Porsche... 917?
