1966 Ford GT40 MK1, This is a MK1 GT40 replica built as a turn-key car from GT40 North America. This car was hand built by seasoned race car fabricators and crew chiefs in Indianapolis, Indiana where the original design was updated with new materials and technologies. This car came out of the famous car collection of John O'Quinn who had amassed a collection in excess of 600 cars. This car has never been registered and is being sold on an MSO and has only been driven 290 miles since new. SONY awarded the GT40 North America car their "Best Domestic Automobile" prize at the 2004 SEMA show in Las Vegas.
These cars were built using some of the most cutting edge materials available with the body, dash, and additional interior componants utilizing carbon fiber. The 392/485 HP engines were specially built and supplied for these cars by ROUSH. The stainless steel headers were built by BURNS and are a work of art and nicer than anything else we've seen on the market. The transmission is a 5 speed ZF like the original GT40's had. This car will do 0 to 60 MPH in 4.5 seconds!
The total production of the GT40 North America cars was limited to less than 20 for sure and I've heard numbers as low as 6 units produced so it is a very rare car indeed! The expense of building these cars due to the top of the line materials used caused the halt of production since the MSRP was in excess $125,000.00. Whoever buys this car will have one of the very few around as most of these are in private collections and may never come up for sale.
