If i was a neighbor i would run outside like a kid whenever this car was fired up!!!! Awesome!!!

[@Johnnywhamo]

I was just going to say, imagine if you were a 12 year old kid and your neighbour had one of these. I'd a raced him down they street on my CCM Banana Seat Highriser. You'd give him a good run if you could get that center frame shifter into third.

[@stevecarlson4539]

Too funny. My neighbors dirt track race car would test run up to the graveyard every Friday night. I was always out to hear it fly bye. That and Nelson Bro's 12V71 kenworth. Never forget how those sounds made me feel as a kid.

[@MarlonDeanMcQueen]

Shelby had nothing to do with the design of the GT 40.

[@JackF99]

@@MarlonDeanMcQueen From my understanding Shelby actually had quite a bit to do with it. The original design was never raced. Upon receipt of the prototype from Eric Broadley or Lola and Roy Lunn of Ford, the Shelby team developed and raced the car into the legend it became- well beyond the uncompetitive and unreliable original. . Shelby, Ford, and Lola continued the partnership until the Mark IV which was by then an all-Ford effort . I'd assume that this particular car is a custom build or a kit- perhaps that is what you were pointing out.

[@LBNMKRS]

Thanks Roy Lunn, Eric Broadley and John Wyer.

[@SamAceRothstein]

@@recon_ron7746 Displacement actually has little to do with physical engine size. It's a common misconception. A perfect example is the LS1. Though it's a 5.7L, it fits, and is often swapped, into cars that originally had much smaller engines, such as the 1.8L Miata, due to the engine's somewhat compact exterior dimensions.
