Ford GT40 Replica for sale
Current customer rating: (371 votes ) based onIntroduction to this GT40 Replica manufactured in 1997.
This is a unique opportunity to obtain a rare track car (it is not registered for the road). Len Bailey (Ford Advance Vehicles) who was the chief designer of the original GT40 along with Pat Murphy who was the works manager. came to work for the vendor at GTD Ltd. They set up the manufacturing processing exactly the same as the original GT40 factory at Slough.
The concept was to build the Monocoque chassis out of light-weight aluminium (that saves a lot of weight) with steel subframes using all the spare parts and original patterns that were available.
The drawings were then produced and this is the unique car you see today. She comes with a GT40 Monocoque Assembly Manual. some 98 pages (like a Haynes Manual) with colour pictures and technical drawings. There are two other files of high-tec information and a record of the car's competitive life i. e. Isle of Man. Prescott. Goodwood etc. The twin brother of this amazing adrenalin rush GT40 is used for historic racing in the United States USA. The others were exported to Sweden and Japan.
