FORD GT40 MkIII
Discussion
Hi All
How popular are the kit versions of the Ford GT40 in the UK?
I have found an absolute beauty for sale at a good price, but am probably thinking of moving to the UK in the medium term. Would it be worthwhile bringing it out with me. Would it hold it's value?...or would it be best to sell it here before I leave? (I live in South Africa). What does a good one sell for over in the UK?
From what I know, it is fitted with a powerful V6 (original was V8), with Citroen gear (same as earlier
Esprit). The body was imported from the UK, and was "supposedly"
manufactured by one of the chaps who was originally involved in the GT40's
success as Le Mans.
I would appreciate any insights.
Cheers,
Nick

Thanks for the reply. Much appreciated.
Is there an easy way to check out which kit version it was constructed from. I am not able to get to the car till the weekend, but would like to phone the chap who's selling it, and get him to check for me.
Another quickie...what were the original colours for the MkIII? Please tell me British Racing Green was one of them?!! ;-)
