Holy Crap! :shocked:

You never got a ticket? :laugh:

Seriously, a fantastic car at a knock down price.

PS, if you put proper Ford tin valve covers on - it'll fetch more.... :)
 
Re: **CAV #148 for Sale in London**

Thanks Rene.

The reason for sale is just lack of use! I work too much. She's just sitting in my garage on a trickle charger looking miserable and I only manage to take her out maybe once every two weeks depending on the weather. Also, London isn't the best place to enjoy a GT40 - too many corners and too much traffic! Amazing to drive though - Frank Catt has done a great job with the engine and set-up.

I saw Johan’s CAV #131 on the site and asked Jean at CAV to replicate the colour so it’s very similar to that one. Different mirrors but the windows and light covers are the same - tinted slightly and sunk to be flush.

Keith - I did look at Ford covers originally but loved the look of the Gurney Weslake ones!
 
Re: **CAV #148 for Sale in London**

Anyone know the cost of crating, insuring, and transporting a car like this to the US........and then you likely have overland transport on each side of the pond.......

Wish I had the cash................
