"Original Body from GT40P1001 Raced in Le Mans 1966, FIA Passport
We own this GT40 and it is available for viewing by appointment in Jacksonville, Florida.
The culmination of a 10+ year project to build a GT40 from authenticated original parts.
Built by world-renowned GT40 expert restorer David Brown in New Zealand over the course of 9 years.
Recognized in a letter to the owner by the authority on GT40's Ronnie Spain who says it will be added to the next printing of his book on every GT40 made.
The build began with authenticated original GT40 chassis parts, the rest of the chassis being built from Ford/Lola blueprints. The body, drivetrain, interior, suspension and other major components are authenticated originals from period GT40's. Some new-old stock and a few reproduction components were used to complete the build.

The 48 IDA Weber carburettors sit on an FAV inlet manifold embossed with ""1042"". The uprights are period magnesium items and have been crack tested for longevity, and the rest of the suspension came from 1009.
