The Last Original GT40 MKII
https://youtu.be/5mxeG7IMhAA
Holman Moody is building the last GT40 MKII or at least the chassis is the real deal. That shop looks like a working museum with all the old stuff in there, man if those walls could talk!!! Pretty cool stuff. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

Great video ... except for the girl, who was a bit of an annoyance.

It is cool that the ultra rich get to have a toy made just like they were done originally. If I had that sort of money, I might go for one of the modern Ford Gts however. It will not be a decision I have to worry about.

I never knew that the front and rear sections of the real cars were fiberglass, always thought they were aluminum. Ya learn something new every day it seems.

I have always loved the look and sound of these. Almost bought a replica but got a Cobra instead. Worked out, my wife loves the Cobra and greatly dislikes the GT40. She is still close enough to perfect for me.
