I have been looking around for one and yesterday found one to my likings. 
Picking it up in 2 weeks! Can't wait....
Makes the sixer look like a SUV
Read the specs as advertised:
1973 Ford GT 40 MK1b GTD. 480bhp recreation.
We are extremely pleased to offer this fabulous iconic Ford GT40 for sale, it has been professionaly looked after all its life and has over the years been ugraded and pampered, it is owned by our Managing Director.
Finished in mid metalic blue with silver stripes and black hide interior this GT40 should not be mistaken for inferior replica's that are occasionally available for sale, this is a true recreation of the legendary 1964 car and is indistiguishable form the real thing, a GT40 of this quality and performance is rarely available for sale and with
indistiguishable form the real thing, a GT40 of this quality and performance is rarely available for sale and with an extremely economic fixed buy it now price offers outstanding value for money.
We recently had the GT40 rolling road tested at a special facility and it produced 0-60 at 3.2 seconds with a top speed of 176.4 miles an hour!
This GT40 has never been raced or used for track days.
This wonderful car is registered on the V5 document as a FORD not GTD or similar as all the components are genuine Ford parts.
This stunning GT40 has a full specification sheet available on request but we will list here the main salient features:
- 480bhp Ford Racing engine built by SD racing services, fully balanced and tuned for very fast road use or track use.
- Twin pum Holley carb with twin fuel pumps and twin aluminium fuel tanks with large Monaco quick release fuel caps.
- Full fire system to engine bay and drivers cockpit, with switch gear to rear quarter and drivers cockpit.
- Full electrical cut out switch gear to external rear quarter and drivers cockpit.
- Large vented disk brakes all round with upgraded large twin pot calipers to all wheels.
- Twin independent braking systems with servo and twin brake reservoirs.
- Twin plate semi-racing AP clutch.
- New hand made high flow aluminum radiator.
- Twin high speed cooling fans.
- Air conditioning 3 dgrees to eyebal vents. (blanaced and charged on 26th May 2010) very efficient, very cold!
- Knock on type Halibrand wheels 5 stud with correct Avon tyres (less than 500 miles wear)
- Correct removeable steering wheel.
- Glass rear screen, not acrylic.
- Correct 5 speed aluminum right handed gear selector with pinned gate system for reverse geat safety.
- 5 speed Renault gearbox and transaxle.
- Beautiful original type interior with black soft hide covered binnacles, seats and ancilaries.
- Correct Smith guages, odometer, rev counter and toggle switches.
Now the boring bit, this is a super car, it is not a toy and should only be purchased by someone with prior experience of driving performance vehicles; although completely road legal this GT40 is extremely fast and handles as it should with crisp turn in and massive adhesion, however, make no mistake if you pushed too hard on the highway and made a small mistake you would be in serious trouble, saying that it will drive slowly when needed and is quite capable of being used every day if you wanted to, it is that good!
We do not entertain test pilots, boy racers, dreamers or scammers, we are happy to take you for a test drive once we have estabilished that you are a genuine purchaser with the necessary funds, I am sorry to be so blunt but we have experienced time wasters; please also do not call us with reasons why this car is wrong in some way or waste our time, any genuine bidder will know the GT40 inside and out and will realise that this particular car is right in every way, please do not bid if you can not afford to buy, thank you.
