It’s a friend of mines most recent purchase, just arrived today. Anybody know what it is? :ninja
Gurney weslake heads, guessing small block ford. Looks like rear engine.Can’t tell what it’s in tho.
old school GT40?
I have no clue, but whatever it is, I want some detailed pictures after this teaser :excited
Technically you’ll be safe by just saying GT40 as the new ones are designated as simply Ford GT. :number1
I’d say a GT40 kit car.
From the headers and engine placement, gt40/gt/kit car
Yep you guys got it, its a Roaring Forties GT40 replica. Here’s a couple more pics of the business end, won’t be doing a full shoot until spring time.
Peep that throttle linkage :excited
Motor is a dart aluminum 331 stroker, AFR alum heads, some nutty australian side-draft intake setup with motec ignition. ZF transaxle, right hand drive, all sorts of fun stuff. It is a very nice replica that was originally owned by a dealer for roaring forties. Will definitely have many more pics to come as well as some videos come spring time.
Those headers
love the cross-plane headers…def a unique sound for an american V8!!!
Yeah definitely a cool sound, can’t wait to hear it with some load on. Here’s a video of it idling the PO made.
While this wasn’t the iconic GT40, I personally love it just as much if not more.
