Ford GT Spyder

Hi Guys,

A friend of mine is looking for some info on a modified Ford GT "Spyder" - I remember seeing a short video clip of one quite a while ago (I think it was yellow), but can not find it at all now.

If anyone can help with a link, it would be greatly appreciated.

Kind Regards,

Peter D.

What's not to like?

I think it looks fab - better than the hardtop version in fact.

From what I know it was partnership between Ford designers & Genaddi Design Group to get prototype together.

To actually get one you need to buy a Ford GT, then take it down to Genaddi Design Group for modification. You don't get much change out of $40k though.

The design is ingenious. It carries all the roof parts in that rear cockpit section.

Plus it has a few more HP thrown into the mix.

I for one certainly want to encourage this sort of creativity.

Different spokes for different folks . . . . .

I think that rear hood of this car looks really flat , especially with this glass between !!!
