GT105 For Sale

I just saw where prototype GT105 is being sold on this web page. I rode in this car in 1994 at a Ford performance meet, which is still one of the biggest thrills of my life. I have pictures of my feet and the speedo showing over 100 miles per hour. The rubber donut axle couplings were dry and cracked so I was praying and grinning at the same time. The car was having battery problems so I helped push to jump-start it several times during the day. I even made the owner's young son a sandwich to seal a ride. It is in very original condition and even smelled like an old 60's car inside. It was the first car to have a Shelby 289 and ZF installed. I was hoping to run into the owner again for another ride, but that's probably a remote chance now.
