Hans Hugenholtz owns 1062

With all due respect, a Sbarro built GT40 is simply a replica. Calling it an original Sbarro is an interesting qualification. Nice car for circuit driving but it will never be allowed in any historic class. The tub looks like brand new to me..........

Yes I will be there.

Great race, I was there to see it all!! Never imagined I would one day own one of the real GT40's...............

Of course it had to say s/n 1075....

Of course 107,the '68 and '69 Le Mans winner is now in a important private collection in the US and being actively raced at times by its very competend owner.

The problem with the HTP system is that in fact a complete new car can be allowed to race against originals. It is up to the organisers of events to refuse replica's (any continuation car on a new chassis is a replica). I will not enter events with my original GT40 if I have to race against a...

Always nice for an owner to find out his car is for sale....... Tell me, is it or is it not for sale???

Thanksforthe quick response. When the Agapiou bros built the cars, which chassis did they use? Is the current J10 still on that original chassis?

It seems the last Mk IV, s/n J10 is for sale. I do not have my books here, but I think I remember that there never was a J10 originally and it was only built on a spare chassis much later (Rod Leach? Holman&Moody?). Can anyone give me the details????

I'll take them all and will even go above the asking price...................

The Le Mans lap on You Tube is 1062 during first practice. You will see the rev-light come up as the diff was too short and I had to lift off at 7,200 rpm......

Victors, I don´t think the chassis to floor size is much different, it just seems that the bodies are a lot lower......... But that would mean a quite extensive change to the whole car. Don´t have the ride heights here; when I get them from my mechanics I will let you know.

With the original discs being solid and the speeds we are running, you can never get enough air to the discs. They are effective.
