The original GT 40 is one of my all time favorite dream cars.
Here's an interesting story : The president of Ford europe was given a one-off
street version GT 40 as a personal car to drive. After 2 yrs Ford corporate
asked him if he'd like to buy it. When asked how much they told him $2000.00
and he turned it down !
He later wrote this was the biggest error regarding a car purchase he ever made
!

Just as a clarification, the Ford exec mentioned was pres. during the late 60s
- early 70s when Ford was LeMans racing the GT 40s, not recently.
BTW, anyone know the "why" hehind the creation of the GT 40s
originally ?

Come on FD, that's a bit vague. There was a specific reason the GT 40s were
built for racing at LeMans.
Here's a clue : Enzo Ferarri

yeah for competing and beating the ferrari....? i can't remember the #. but
i've got some pics. I'll be back

i was wrong i don't have a pic loaded already but i think it was the 250
ferrari. i do have a couple to load if you wish though.
also ford was pissed when they tried to buy out ferrari and the deal fell
through, i ythink pappi enzo decided he didn't want an american company owning
his baby.
