Hey, a couple of hours from this post and I recieved many a phone call.....
Not in stone but the translation from 3 gt40 owners is that this car "IS THE REAL DEAL" .
Heres the explanation ,the first 12 cars were ptoto types......101 to 112, hold on tight as it gets fuzzy.
4 were "roadsters" , mark 1 small block cars...."NOT THE GTX-1" built and crushed.
This car was 111 raced at targa floria lost its spinner and crashed.......
Hold on this is where 3 veterans start screaming who's right in my ear.........:eek
Anywho supposedly it was dismantled for parts then the tub was trashed, 30 years later it never made the trash and rebuilt, legend has it the tub was cut in half, so if its the true car and restored theres a seam line down the middle. This is a small block car, no one has the answer on the dash vents yet.
Is it legit yes , was it restored using other car parts , yes, its the typical 60's race car, remember it was in a garbage pale for a while........and so....we could hit 1million plus,engine/tranny need to be sorted out, it will tell the true worth.....
Dont hold me to any of this but my guys are REALLY sure on this one, how they remember this crap 40 years later like it was yesterday,:eek
But I guess Dave and I and some others will be asked the same in 20 years and it will all be as a matter of fact.....band aid clips? half shaft bolts, stamped gas caps.....ooh yeah...:biggrin gtjoey1314
Rocket pull out the check book where going to italy...........ciao:thumbsup
