You are a lucky man, and that P4 is lucky to have such an owner! Must be neat to examine little details such as the tab for the "plombeurs" (sp?) to seal the fluids off... | |

Outstanding, Jim. I will certainly make a point to get to the Greenwich concours event next year to see it in the flesh. | |

Jim,
Great pics! I was curious...how hard is it to get a replacement for your P4 windscreen? That's quite a curve that it has.
Have fun!

Jim,
I have been watching this build and I am thoroughly impressed. I love to build but you take it to a whole different level. I can't imagine having to do the research let alone do the build proper. You are to be commended for such a fine job. I'm guessing but I would bet that the interior materials was a big challenge.

The interior is original. Parkes, Bondurant,Vaccarella, Bandini, Surtees, P.Rodriquez, Ginther,Amon,and Piper have sat in that seat...

Ferrari 330 P4. The car that the Ford MK-IV beat at LeMans in 67. In some people's view the most beautiful sports car ever built and the car that inspite of it's loss at LeMans in 67 (It did finish 2&3) won the overall Championship that year. | |

Jim,
I hope I don't insult you here but I like your Lola better. Don't get me wrong the P4 build is amazing and truely a beautiful car. With that said do you think you could post some more photos of the Lola? It's without a doubt my favorite car.
Thanks John | |

I think Cigaro/Drago the guys who pounded out the P4 body had a look at Lola before they began. This link has photo's and photo's of the Lola that became the Ford GT.
It begins at the bottom and reads in reverse order to this forum.

Hey Jim
Any difference in the body between the P3 and P4?

Mike
If you go to that site and search under P4 you'll find photos that show the differences. The main ones are the roof top exit vents and the rear deck. The P3's used Webbers so the deck humped up. The P4 has mech. Lucas FI so the deck is indented.
